Aadhaar is a number, not a citizenship document
India's Aadhaar is a twelve-digit identity number issued by UIDAI, linked to biometrics and printed on a letter or card. It establishes identity for services — it is not a document of citizenship or of nationality, and a translation that described it as one would assert something the document itself does not.
We translate the card or letter as issued, reproducing the number exactly and rendering the Hindi or regional-language side in full alongside the English. What Aadhaar proves for a given purpose is a question for the office asking, or for an attorney.
The other documents in the set
An Indian identity file commonly also holds the PAN card for tax, the voter ID (EPIC), a ration card, and the passport — which is the document that does establish nationality. They are different documents with different scope and we name each accurately.
Cards may be in English, in Hindi, or in a regional language, frequently mixed, and a partly-English document still needs the rest translated. See our Indian birth certificate page and our Hindi page.
Every field is translated, including the ones US cards do not have
National identity cards carry fields US documents do not: religion, ethnicity or nationality-within-the-state, blood type, marital status, the father's or mother's name, a registered address, an expiry that governs rights rather than travel. A translator who quietly omits one because it has no US equivalent has edited a government document — and it is frequently the omitted field that a file actually turns on.
So every printed field is translated, labelled as the card labels it, and the identity number is reproduced exactly, never translated. Those numbers commonly encode a date of birth, a sex or a place of registration, so altering the digits alters the record. Both sides are translated, because the reverse is where the address, the issuing office and the machine-readable zone usually sit.
What USCIS requires
Under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), a foreign-language document must be accompanied by a complete English translation and the translator's certification that it is accurate. Every seal, stamp and marginal note is part of the document, so every one is translated.
State agencies set their own rules — see government agencies — and what our certification states is on this page.
How it works
Upload a photo or a scan of your document, pick the language pair and check out online. You never have to mail originals: a legible copy is all we need.
A professional human translator, never machine translation, translates the document word for word and mirrors the layout of the original. Every certified translation ships with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy that meets the requirements of USCIS, courts and universities.
Your translation is delivered digitally, usually within 24 hours for documents of one to three pages, and same-day delivery is available. If anything needs adjusting, we revise it.
Certified vs. standard translation
A certified translation is a word-for-word translation accompanied by a signed statement attesting to its accuracy and completeness. It is what official bodies require: USCIS, courts, universities and government agencies. Certified translations are $24.95 per page, where one sheet of your document is one page, with no word cap.
A standard translation is the same professional human translation without the certificate, for when you only need to understand the content or for internal or informal use. It is billed at the same $24.95 per page with no word cap.
Frequently asked questions
Does Aadhaar prove I am Indian?
No. It establishes identity for services and is not a citizenship or nationality document. The passport is the one that establishes nationality.
My card is partly in English already.
The rest still needs translating and we translate the whole document.
Is the Aadhaar number translated?
Reproduced exactly, never altered.
