What to Know About Pakistan Documents
- Modern Pakistani certificates are issued by NADRA (National Database and Registration Authority) and are often bilingual Urdu/English — UKVI still expects a certified translation of the Urdu text, seals and stamps.
- Marriage is evidenced by the Nikah Nama (Islamic marriage contract) together with the NADRA Marriage Registration Certificate; both are usually needed for spouse and partner applications.
- The Family Registration Certificate (FRC) from NADRA is commonly requested to prove relationships between family members.
- Older, handwritten Union Council birth or marriage records frequently have to be re-registered with NADRA before they will be accepted.

FAQ
Questions about Pakistani documents
Do NADRA documents that are already bilingual still need translating?
Yes. Even when a NADRA certificate prints English alongside the Urdu, UKVI expects a certified translation that reproduces the Urdu wording, official seals and stamps. Our certified translation covers the whole document so there is no ambiguity for the caseworker.
Can you translate a Nikah Nama for a spouse visa?
Yes. The Nikah Nama is one of the documents we translate most often for UK spouse and unmarried-partner applications, usually alongside the NADRA Marriage Registration Certificate.
Which language will my Pakistani documents be translated from?
Most Pakistani civil documents are in Urdu, with some content in Punjabi. We translate from the original language into certified English.
