Urdu: The Language of 230 Million People Across Two Countries

Professional Urdu Translation for Every Context

Urdu is spoken by over 230 million people and is the national language and lingua franca of Pakistan and one of India's scheduled official languages. It is also widely spoken among diaspora communities in the United Kingdom, United States, Canada, and Gulf countries. Urdu uses the Nastaliq style of the Perso-Arabic script, written right to left, and has an extensive literary and cultural heritage.

BeTranslated provides Urdu translation with native linguists experienced across business, legal, e-commerce, marketing, and technical sectors. Urdu uses a cursive right-to-left script that requires specialized typesetting software to render correctly in professional documents. Our DTP team handles Urdu Nastaliq typesetting across all major file formats. We cover legal and regulatory content, business documentation, e-commerce product localization, marketing materials, IT and software, medical translation, and certified translation for official use.

Common Questions

Urdu Translation: Frequently Asked Questions

Urdu and Hindi share a common spoken origin and are mutually intelligible in everyday conversation. The key differences are in script (Urdu uses Nastaliq Perso-Arabic; Hindi uses Devanagari), formal vocabulary (Urdu draws from Persian and Arabic; Hindi from Sanskrit), and cultural association. For professional written documents, they are distinct languages requiring separate translation.

Yes. Urdu written in the Nastaliq style requires specific typesetting software and expertise to render correctly. Generic Arabic-script typesetting tools do not produce acceptable Urdu output. Our DTP team uses specialist Nastaliq-capable tools and reviews output for correct character joining and diacritic placement before delivery.

We cover legal and regulatory, business and corporate, e-commerce and retail, marketing, IT and software, medical, tourism and hospitality, and government communication. We also handle immigration documents, legal certificates, and academic records for the Urdu-speaking diaspora in the UK, USA, and Canada.
