Marathi is the official language of the Indian state of Maharashtra, including Mumbai and Pune, with around 83 million native speakers — one of India's most-spoken languages. The US Marathi-speaking community is around 200,000 and concentrated in New Jersey, the Bay Area, Texas, Atlanta, and Chicago — much of it driven by Mumbai-area IT and finance migration. Our Marathi translation work is split between USCIS civil documents (Maharashtra birth and marriage certificates), academic transcripts being evaluated for US credentials, and the H-1B and dependent-visa paperwork that comes with the IT and finance migration patterns. Marathi uses Devanagari, the same script as Hindi.
