Top Rated Pashto/Farsi/Dari/Urdu Translator |Legal & Tech Localization
⭐ Top Rated translator with 100% Job Success ⭐ Specializing in legal/immigration documents and software localization for: English ⇔ Pashto, Dari, Urdu, Farsi, Arabic, Kurdish (Sorani/Kurmanji), and Khmer. Past clients include Stanford University, RAND Corporation, WHO, UNICEF, the City of Austin (TX), Pfizer, and the Saudi Ministry of Commerce, covering academic research, policy documents, humanitarian field reports, clinical reports, and official government communications. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WHY MY WORK IS DIFFERENT I'm both a professional linguist (5+ years) AND a working software engineer. That rare combination matters because: ✅ Legal documents come back looking identical to the original, stamps, seals, tables, official letterheads, and complex Persian/Arabic script formatting all preserved. Accepted by USCIS, UK Home Office, and international courts on first submission. ✅ Software localization that doesn't break your build, I work natively with JSON, XML, .PO, SRT, and HTML files. Code variables (%s, {{name}}), placeholders, and pluralization rules stay intact. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WHAT I TRANSLATE 🔹 Immigration & Legal Afghan Tazkira (e-Tazkira and paper), Nikah Nama, school transcripts, threat letters Iranian Shenasnameh, Kart-e Melli, property deeds Pakistani NADRA FRC/MRC, police clearance, stamp-paper affidavits Arabic family books, bylaws, divorce decrees, powers of attorney 🔹 Technical & Software Mobile app UI strings, websites, API documentation, user manuals 🔹 Medical & NGO Clinical reports, humanitarian field surveys, donor-facing communications ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ REGIONAL EXPERTISE I grew up reading and writing in the scripts and dialects most translators outsource, Afghan Dari vs. Iranian Farsi, Pakistani Urdu, Gulf vs. Modern Standard Arabic, Sorani and Kurmanji Kurdish. This matters when a single mistranslated village name or honorific can derail an asylum case. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ HOW I WORK ✔ Strict NDA compliance on every project ✔ Source formatting preserved exactly, tables, stamps, layout ✔ 24–48 hour turnaround for standard certificates; rush options available ✔ Available for long-term localization retainers Send me a sample page or file and I'll respond with a quote and timeline within a few minutes.
