What our reviewers know about your documents
Sinhala is written in its own script, read left-to-right. Older Sri Lankan certificates are often handwritten entries in Sinhala or Tamil, and Verdacert reads and transcribes them in full. Sri Lankan names are commonly printed as initials followed by a surname (W. A. D. Perera) and may include an ancestral house name (vasagama); Verdacert expands initials where the documents allow and aligns the name with the holder's passport. National identity card numbers in both the old (nine digits and a letter) and new (12-digit) formats are transcribed exactly. Sri Lankan documents write dates both day-first and year-first, so Verdacert confirms the reading before rendering a date in words.
