Certified Kurdish nikah marriage contract translation for Other.

Nikah marriage contracts issued by Kurdish-speaking jurisdictions are among the most-translated civil documents in US other filings. Nikah marriage contracts — عقد الزواج, عقد النكاح, کابین‌نامه — are the religious-law marriage instruments used across the Muslim world, sometimes alongside and sometimes in place of a civil marriage certificate. USCIS accepts a certified translation of the nikah contract for I-130 spouse petitions and K-1 / K-3 visa cases from jurisdictions where the religious marriage is the primary or only record (notably Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Iran, and parts of Pakistan).

Kurdish is spoken across a region spanning Iraq, Türkiye, Iran, and Syria, with two principal written varieties used in official documents. Verdacert translates Kurdish-language civil records, Kurdistan Regional Government documents, and asylum case materials — selecting reviewers calibrated to the specific dialect and script of your source. Verdacert's reviewer pool covers Sorani (Central Kurdish), Kurmanji (Northern Kurdish), Pehlewani and Southern Kurdish, with country-specific document conventions from Iraq, Türkiye, Iran, Syria.

Kurdish documents may appear in either Sorani (right-to-left, Arabic-based script) or Kurmanji (left-to-right, Latin-based script with diacritics). Iraqi Kurdistan documents are often bilingual (Kurdish + Arabic); Verdacert produces a single English translation and notes the source script and dialect on the certification. Dates may use the Gregorian or Solar Hijri calendar depending on country of issuance.

Verdacert handles any document that requires a certified English translation for use in a US setting. If your use case isn't listed, the standard certification statement applies and most documents are accepted without further authentication.

For nikah marriage contract translations specifically, our reviewers focus on mahr denominated in gold dinars, dirhams, or named property — preserved with reviewer-note conversion and wakalah (representation) clauses where the bride was not physically present, among other patterns. The AI draft is calibrated to surface uncertainty rather than guess, so the reviewer always knows where to spend their attention.

Every translation we deliver includes a signed certification statement, a faithful transcription of every field on the source, descriptions of all seals and stamps, and explicit [illegible] markers anywhere the source is unreadable rather than a guess. The reviewer signs the certification under their own name.
