Punjabi is spoken by a large and established South Asian community in the United Kingdom, including significant Indian Punjabi (Sikh) and Pakistani Punjabi communities in California, New York, Michigan, and New Jersey. UKVI processes Punjabi-language documents for family petitions, employment-based immigration, and naturalization, written in either Gurmukhi (Indian) or Shahmukhi (Pakistani) script.
Translation AZ provides certified Punjabi translation by native-speaking professional translators covering both Gurmukhi script (used in India) and Shahmukhi script (used in Pakistan). All translations are UKVI-accepted and independently reviewed under ISO 17100. Our translators are experienced with Indian and Pakistani civil registry documents and the terminology used in UKVI filings.

Gurmukhi & Shahmukhi Scripts
Punjabi is written in two different scripts depending on the country of origin. In India, Punjabi is written in Gurmukhi β a left-to-right abugida developed for the Sikh scriptures, used as the official script of Punjab state. In Pakistan, Punjabi is written in Shahmukhi β a right-to-left Perso-Arabic script similar to Urdu Nastaliq. Official documents from Indian Punjab use Gurmukhi; documents from Pakistani Punjab may use Shahmukhi, Urdu, or a mix. Our translators cover both scripts and will confirm the script of your source document before proceeding.
