How it works

From your files to a certified delivery

Four steps, the same on a single birth certificate and on a two hundred page contract. You know the scope and the delivery date before any work starts.

  1. 1

    Send the files

    Upload documents or describe the assignment. Tell us the language pair, the deadline and whether the result needs certifying.

  2. 2

    Scope and quote

    A project manager checks the source is complete and legible, then replies with a fixed scope, a price and a delivery time. Nothing is charged until you confirm.

  3. 3

    Translate and review

    A native speaking specialist translates. A second independent linguist compares the result against the source in full. That review is never skipped.

  4. 4

    Certified delivery

    You receive the finished files in the agreed format, with a signed statement of accuracy where one is needed, by the date in your quote.

Global Languages

Coverage across major global languages, regional vernaculars and languages of limited diffusion.

Language coverage

More than 80 languages, matched to the dialect

A language is rarely one thing. We ask which variety your client speaks before assigning, because the wrong dialect wastes an appointment as surely as the wrong language.

Africa and the Horn

Somali in both main varieties, Maxaa Tiri for standard written work and Maay for southern speakers, alongside Amharic, Tigrinya, Oromo, Swahili, Hausa and Yoruba. A Maay speaker is not well served by a Maxaa interpreter, so we ask before assigning.

Middle East and Asia

Arabic, Dari, Pashto, Farsi, Urdu, Chinese, Vietnamese and Korean. Arabic is assigned by region rather than treated as one language, and Chinese is handled in both simplified and traditional script.

Europe

Spanish, French, Portuguese, Russian, Ukrainian, Romanian, Polish and German, each matched to locale, so Portuguese for Brazil is never treated as Portuguese for Portugal.

Americas and signed

Haitian Creole, Quechua, Latin American Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese, plus American Sign Language interpreting for in person and video assignments.

Document pages set in left to right, right to left, vertical and block based writing systems
Scripts do not behave alike. Direction, line rhythm and character density all change how a translated page has to be set, which is why layout is part of the work and not an afterthought.

Insights and guides

Answers before you need to ask

Written by the people who handle these projects, for the questions clients bring us most often.

Common questions

What clients ask before they send us anything

How much does a translation cost?

Document translation is quoted on word count, language pair, subject matter and how quickly you need it. Certified vital records such as birth or marriage certificates are usually quoted per page instead, because the amount of text is predictable. Interpretation is quoted per hour or per minute depending on the mode, with a short minimum booking. Send the files or describe the assignment and you will have a fixed quote, not an estimate that moves later.

How fast can you deliver a certified translation?

A standard document such as a birth certificate, marriage certificate or police clearance is typically ready within 24 to 48 hours, and rush delivery in around 12 hours is available. Longer records, court files and academic transcripts are scoped individually. The delivery time in your quote is the one we work to, and if anything threatens it you hear from us while there is still time to act.

Will USCIS accept your certified translations?

Yes. Our certified translations carry a signed statement of accuracy attesting that the translation is complete and accurate and that the translator is competent in the language pair, which is what United States Citizenship and Immigration Services requires. If a filing is rejected on translation or certification grounds we re translate and re certify at no cost. Notarization is available where a consulate or court asks for it.

Do you translate Somali, and which dialect?

Both. Maxaa Tiri is the standard variety used in official documents and broadcasting, and Maay is spoken widely across southern Somalia. The two differ enough that a Maay speaker is not always well served by a Maxaa interpreter, so we ask which one your client speaks and assign a linguist accordingly. The same care applies to Arabic, Spanish, Portuguese and every other language with significant regional variation.

Do you use machine translation or artificial intelligence?

Not for the work we deliver. Every translation is produced by a qualified human linguist and reviewed by a second independent linguist before delivery. Machine output misreads context, invents plausible wording where a source is unclear and cannot be certified for legal validity. Your content is also never used to train machine translation systems or language models.

How do you keep our documents confidential?

Every engagement is covered by a confidentiality agreement, and every translator, interpreter and transcriber signs one as a condition of receiving work. Your material reaches only the project manager and the linguists assigned to it, travels over encrypted connections, and is deleted on request. Interpreters and transcribers working on clinical material are trained on HIPAA obligations.

Can you interpret at short notice?

Over the phone interpreting can usually connect within minutes and video remote interpreting within the hour for common languages. On site assignments need more notice, typically several days, and longer for less widely spoken languages. Urgent legal and medical requests are handled around the clock.
