Urdu translation services in Luton
Document translation is mostly handled by email: your file goes to a Urdu native translator, the translated version comes back to you in the format you need. So even though this page is about Luton, location matters less for translation than it does for interpreting: we deliver to clients in Luton the same way we deliver to clients anywhere else in the UK. The Luton-specific bit is the local context: if your document is for a Luton solicitor, a Luton hospital or a Luton university, we'll handle the formatting and the accompanying paperwork the way those bodies expect.
Certified Urdu translation
For most UK official use in Luton (UKVI applications, court proceedings, university admissions, registry office work, Home Office cases), certified Urdu translation is what's required. We provide that as standard: the translated document plus a signed declaration of accuracy on Prism Linguistics letterhead, with the translator's name and our company stamp. Sworn or apostilled formats are available if your receiving body asks for those instead; just tell us at quote stage.
What we translate
How to order a Urdu translation in Luton
Send us the document. We'll come back within an hour during UK office hours with a price and a delivery date. A Urdu native translator with the right subject background does the work; a second linguist reviews it; we deliver in the format you asked for. Standard turnaround for a short certificate is normally next working day; longer pieces are quoted with a realistic date.
English to Urdu translator (and the other way round) in Luton
We work in both directions. Customer-facing copy (websites, brochures, ads, emails) is adapted rather than translated word for word, so it reads like it was written in Urdu in the first place. Legal, medical and technical documents stay faithful to the source, with formatting matched to the original.
Need a spoken-language interpreter in Luton too?

About Luton
Luton is a large and notably multicultural town north of London, with dozens of languages spoken across its communities and a wide range of employers. That diversity means language support is part of everyday life for many local organisations. Solicitors and legal firms frequently need certified translations for immigration and family cases. GP surgeries, health centres and clinics book interpreters so patients and clinicians understand one another. Council services and the local authority, along with schools and colleges, deal with residents and families from all over the world, and local businesses need documents translated for customers and suppliers abroad. Prism Linguistics provides certified document translation, face-to-face interpreting, and telephone and video interpreting in more than 300 languages. A qualified native-speaker linguist handles each job, and a second linguist checks it before delivery, so quality does not depend on one person alone. All work is confidential and compliant with UK GDPR. We arrange linguists across Luton and the surrounding area, in person where you need a physical presence and remotely where that is quicker.
About the Urdu language
Urdu is an Indo-Aryan language and the national language of Pakistan, where it is official alongside English, and one of India's constitutionally scheduled languages with official status in several Indian states. At street level, spoken Urdu and Hindi are largely mutually intelligible; the two diverge in script and formal vocabulary, Urdu being written in the Perso-Arabic script, usually in the flowing Nastaliq style, and drawing its learned words from Persian and Arabic. Native speakers number around 70 million, but as a lingua franca Urdu reaches an estimated 230 million or more. It is among the most widely spoken languages in the UK after English, with substantial communities in Birmingham, Bradford, Manchester and London recorded in the 2021 Census.
