TL;DR
Farsi is the main language of Iran. Documents from Afghanistan use a closely related language usually labeled Dari, and getting that label right matters for how we word your Certificate of Accuracy. Iran is not a Hague Apostille member and has no direct diplomatic channel with the United States, which affects how the original document gets authenticated, not the translation itself.
- Written right to left in a Perso-Arabic script with extra letters Arabic doesn't use
- Tell us if your document is labeled Dari rather than Farsi, especially common for Afghan cases
- Same $22.99 per page rate and 24 hour turnaround as every language on this hub
Why Farsi Translation Is Different
Farsi and Dari are closely related languages that sometimes get treated as interchangeable, but getting the label right matters, especially for Afghan immigration cases where the distinction shows up on official paperwork.
Farsi and Dari are close enough linguistically that speakers of one can generally understand the other, but they're treated as administratively distinct. Farsi is the label used for documents from Iran. Dari is the label commonly used for documents from Afghanistan. That distinction matters directly for how we word your Certificate of Accuracy, and it comes up often given the current volume of Afghan Special Immigrant Visa and asylum cases moving through USCIS.

How Farsi, Dari, and Tajik Compare
These three languages share a common linguistic root but are treated as administratively separate depending on where the document was issued. Farsi is the label for Iranian documents. Dari is the label for Afghan documents, close enough that a Farsi speaker can generally understand it, but labeled differently on official paperwork. Tajik, spoken in Tajikistan, is also closely related but written in Cyrillic script rather than the Perso-Arabic alphabet used for Farsi and Dari, and is treated as administratively separate again.
Getting the correct label on your Certificate of Accuracy matters more than it might seem. An Afghan SIV or asylum case reviewed by USCIS will often expect to see "Dari" specifically, not "Farsi," even though the underlying language is nearly the same. Tell us at order time which label applies, or we'll confirm it from your document.
Common Farsi Documents We Translate
| Document type | Notes |
|---|---|
| Shenasnameh (Iranian identity booklet) | Iran's standard identity and civil record document |
| Afghan civil and education records | Common in family-based and education-related petitions |
| Refugee and asylum-related documents | Often part of Afghan SIV and asylum cases |
The Shenasnameh in particular is a document type many translation services don't see often, but it's one we translate regularly.

Farsi Script and Naming Conventions
Farsi and Dari are both written right to left in a Perso-Arabic script.
- The alphabet includes several letters not found in Arabic, added to represent sounds specific to Persian
- The script looks similar to Arabic at a glance, but the languages are grammatically distinct with different vocabulary
- Tell us at order time whether your document is labeled Farsi or Dari, since that affects how we word the Certificate of Accuracy
- Our translators reference the Library of Congress's standard Persian romanization table for consistent name rendering
Farsi Document Authentication & Apostille Process
Neither Iran nor Afghanistan is currently a Hague Apostille member, so documents from either country require full embassy or consular legalization rather than a standard apostille.
For Iran specifically, that process is complicated further by the lack of direct US-Iran diplomatic relations. Iran presents a genuinely unusual situation, there's no US embassy in Iran and no Iranian embassy in Washington to handle the usual channels. Instead, Iran's interests in Washington are represented through an Interests Section at the Pakistani Embassy, while the Swiss Embassy in Tehran represents US interests inside Iran. This adds a layer of practical friction to authenticating the original document that most other countries on this hub don't have.
As always, it's the original document that needs authentication, not the translation. If you're navigating this process, our Countries We Cover page has more general detail, though your specific situation may need direct guidance.

Farsi vs. Arabic: Two Different Languages
Farsi is sometimes confused with Arabic, since both use a right to left script that looks similar at first glance. They're different languages with different alphabets and different grammar. See our Arabic page if that's what you actually need.
