What is a Farsi certified translation?

A Farsi certified translation is a complete translation of a Farsi or Persian document accompanied by written certification confirming the translation’s accuracy.

The service can be used when an organisation needs an English translation of a document issued in Farsi, or when an English document must be translated into Farsi for use by an overseas organisation.

Farsi and Persian are names for the same language. “Persian” is the English language name, while “Farsi” is the name commonly used by Persian speakers. Either term may appear in customer instructions, application guidance or document requests.

What your certified translation includes

The translated document is prepared so that names, dates, entries and official markings can be checked against the source.

  1. Translation of all legible visible text

    Field labels, typed entries, headings, tables, stamps, seals and relevant handwritten annotations are translated where they can be read clearly.

  2. Certificate of Accuracy

    Certified orders include a signed statement confirming the accuracy and completeness of the translation.

  3. Translator or translation-company details

    The certification records the identifying and contact details needed to make the translation independently verifiable.

  4. Clear, comparable formatting

    The translated layout is structured so the receiving organisation can compare key fields with the original Farsi document.

  5. Final checks before delivery

    Names, dates, numbers, terminology, completeness, formatting and certification details are reviewed before the completed file is sent.

Details that need careful handling in Farsi documents

Farsi uses right-to-left script and official records may contain multiple possible English spellings for the same name. Consistency with existing identity documents is therefore particularly important.

CHECK 01

Names and transliteration

Share the English spelling already used on a passport, visa, residence permit or previous official record. This helps prevent avoidable differences between documents.

CHECK 02

Dates and number formats

Dates and numbers are checked carefully and presented clearly so they can be compared with the source record and the intended application.

CHECK 03

Stamps, seals and handwritten notes

Legible official markings, marginal notes and handwritten entries are included rather than silently omitted.

CHECK 04

Right-to-left document structure

Field relationships and page structure are reproduced clearly so an English-language reader can follow the translated information without losing its connection to the original layout.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about Farsi certified translation

Requirements can vary between organisations. Share any written instructions from the recipient when you submit your document.

Ask another question
Is Farsi the same language as Persian?

Yes. Farsi and Persian refer to the same language. “Persian” is the conventional English name, while “Farsi” is the name commonly used by speakers of the language. A translation request may use either term.

What is a Farsi certified translation?

It is a complete translation of a Farsi or Persian document accompanied by certification confirming the translation’s accuracy. The certification normally records the date and the translator’s or translation company’s identifying and contact details.

Can you translate both Farsi to English and English to Farsi?

Yes. Documents can be reviewed for translation in either direction. State the destination country and receiving organisation so the appropriate format and certification can be confirmed.

Which Farsi documents can be translated?

Common requests include birth and marriage certificates, identity documents, divorce records, diplomas, academic transcripts, employment letters, contracts and other personal, legal, academic or business documents.

What should I send to receive a quotation?

Send a clear copy of every page and include the language direction, intended use, receiving organisation, deadline and delivery preference. Share existing passport spellings for names where consistency is important.

Can I send a photograph taken with my phone?

A clear, well-lit photograph is normally suitable for an initial review. Keep all four edges visible and avoid blur, glare, shadows or cropped stamps. Send both sides when information appears on the reverse.

How quickly can a Farsi certified translation be completed?

The website offers 2-hour emergency service during working hours, 12-hour priority, 24-hour express and 2-day standard options. Availability for a particular Farsi document is confirmed after reviewing its length, legibility, formatting and certification requirements.

Can the translation be prepared for a UK visa application?

A certified translation can be prepared with the accuracy confirmation, date, signature or identifying details and contact information commonly requested for UK submissions. The receiving authority makes the final decision, so provide its current instructions before ordering.

How are Farsi names written in the English translation?

Provide the English spelling already used on the relevant passport, visa or identity document. Where no official spelling exists, the name is transliterated consistently and any uncertainty can be raised before completion.

Can I receive a printed hard copy?

Yes. Certified translations can be delivered digitally by email, with printed and posted hard copies available on request. Check whether the receiving organisation requires a physical copy before ordering.
