Forensic medicine, and where it sits
Afghan forensic examination has been conducted principally through the forensic medicine department at the main hospitals and a national directorate, with capacity concentrated in the largest cities.
A report may therefore come from a provincial hospital physician rather than a forensic specialist, and we name the author and their position as printed rather than implying a specialism.
The court, and the expert
Afghan courts obtain expert opinion by referral, and the referral and the report are both in the file. Documents issued since 2021 come from courts operating under a changed administration and those from before it from the previous one.
We name the issuing court exactly as printed, without commentary.
Solar Hijri dates
Afghan documents are dated in the Solar Hijri calendar, whose year begins at the spring equinox, so a conversion by subtracting a constant is wrong a substantial fraction of the time.
We convert each date individually and show both, which matters where a sequence of examinations is what a reader is assessing.
Dari, Pashto and documents from abroad
Documents appear in Dari or Pashto and a file frequently contains both. They are different languages sharing a script.
Many Afghan medical and forensic documents in US files were created in Pakistan, Iran or a transit country, or by an international organisation. We name the issuing body and country. See our Persian (Dari) and Pashto pages.
Ordering, and what the certification covers
Upload the document, choose certified translation at $24.95 per page of up to 250 words, and it comes back typically within 24 hours as a PDF formatted to mirror the original, with a signed certificate of translation accuracy on letterhead. Marginal annotations are translated in place, in the margin, and every seal, stamp and registry endorsement is translated with the text. See how we translate and certified versus standard.
