I thought as much .....regarding your nationality.It's nice learning that a Punjabi is attracted to a Nigerian site.I have a couple of Punjabi buddies who i can link you withmto answer your query regarding your localized birth certificate translation.
I know for sure notary public is fine......but it's better you communicate with your nationals that have done it..........its late in the nite from your end i supposes....u should be past midnite now.
Please check your box and respond back to an mail from me to the email u used to register your account on nairaland......I'll refer you to my buddies from there.
Cheers.

THank you brother i am glad !!!! thankss for such a great help !!! i actually got attracted by the quality of information i got here !!! i already responded to your email !!!

damkollins:
Good you are here......Welcome .
Regarding your birth certificate in other language apart from English,you will need to get it translated and the photocopy of the original document copy in your native language must be certified and included in your langauge with the English translated copy.
An affidavit of the translator must accompany your package also.
You can also include a sworn age affidavit for declaration of age to strengthened your claim.
Translation as i explained to you is okay and accepted.
Cheers.
