Translation Services UK

Below you will see a brief description of our most popular translation services that we provide for clients in London, the whole of the UK and internationally.

Standard Translation

  • The simplest of translation types, where common language is used, and the document is passed to Translator UK via email in plain email or Microsoft Word format.
  • Depending on the language pair in question, and the amount of text, rates for standard text translation can be as low as £0.03 per word.
  • Generally for all types of standard translation (small volume) our turnaround time can be on the same day. Urgent work can be handled with only a marginal increase in costs.

Website Localisation

  • This service involves re-creating your entire website, including all formatting, images, and code into a new language, or multiple languages.
  • As text length can vary from one language to another greatly, experienced translators with the technical expertise for concise website localisation are of paramount importance to get the job done right.
  • It is important to note that it is not only the text of the website that is to be translated; it also involves the translation of all the text-in-images within the site. Many websites have images as their menu items as an example, which can pose a significant challenge to the inexperienced web developer as many languages require far more characters than English.

Sworn Translation

  • If you require documents to be used for court, or the vast majority of government transactions, such as application for immigration, getting married, etc. it is often required that you provide your official documents in another language.
  • This is called Sworn Translation, and involves an official translator affixing a stamp and standing by (legally) the work. Obviously this is of the highest standard.
  • With sworn translation, it is necessary for the certified translator to physically hold the original document. This can be arranged through Translator UK via secure courier services such as UPS.

Interpreting

  • Normally reserved for business meetings and conferences, our interpreting services are of the highest standard and we can provide an interpreter in any language pair needed.
  • Interpreting services are normally billed on an hourly basis or a daily basis depending on the requirements.
  • Many people confuse the terms "Translator" with "Interpreter". An interpreter is either physically with you, or involved in a conference call that systematically translates from one language to another so that two people that don't speak each others language can communicate.
