About the Konkani language.
Konkani is the official language of Goa, on India's west coast, and is also spoken along the Konkan coast in Karnataka, Maharashtra and Kerala, and by Goan and Konkani communities abroad. It is one of India's 22 scheduled languages. It is an Indo-Aryan language. Other Indo-Aryan languages we translate include Assamese, Awadhi, Bengali and Bhojpuri.
Konkani is written in several scripts: Devanagari is the official script in Goa, the Roman alphabet is widely used, especially by Goan Catholics, and Kannada script is used in Karnataka. Tell us which script your readers use and we will deliver in it.
We translate in both directions. Konkani to English work is usually certificates, land and property records, church and family documents. English to Konkani work is usually community information and business content.
Indian documents are often in English or Marathi as well as Konkani; we translate only the parts you need. Goan names are often spelled in more than one way, so we keep them consistent with the passport or other documents you supply. A certified translation is available for these. If an authority asks for a sworn translation, ask us to confirm availability for the language pair.

Certified Konkani translation
For official documents, tell us which institution will receive your Konkani translation and send its written requirements. We assess the language pair and confirm whether the project needs a signed statement of accuracy, a sworn translator or another process. Acceptance is decided by the receiving institution.
Common documents include birth certificates, marriage certificates, degree certificates and police clearance certificates. Requirements differ between courts, embassies, universities and immigration authorities, so tell us where the Konkani translation will be submitted and send any written instructions you have. If an authority asks for a sworn translation, ask us to confirm availability for the language pair.
