Five stages, handled with care.
A typical Haridwar case takes between four and ten weeks, depending on what you can share with us and the condition of the relevant registers.
- 01
Order a package
Choose a Haridwar package and create your case from any country. You will receive a case reference number immediately.
- 02
Complete the family questionnaire
A save-and-return questionnaire captures the names, places, dates and oral history that help our researcher locate the correct register. You can also record audio of elders directly from your phone.
- 03
Field research in Haridwar
Your assigned researcher meets the relevant panda families in person, requests the appropriate registers, photographs the entries and confirms the findings on the ground.
- 04
Transcription and translation
Trained translators manually transcribe each relevant page from the original script — often old Devanagari — and translate it into clear English. Every page is reviewed by our office.
- 05
Your secure digital family archive
You receive a final report, photographs of the entries, a translated family tree and any audio you contributed — all kept in your private case, to revisit, share and extend later.
Some families' registers can be located within days; others take longer or cannot be located at all. Our packages include clear refund and conversion terms for cases where no relevant register is found.
