Quality
Accurate Document Translation for Business, Legal, and Official Use
We translate business, legal, and official documents with the subject knowledge and terminology control each file requires. Related documents can be managed together to keep wording consistent, while formatting and layout are retained where needed.
Certified translation is available for documents with formal submission requirements, with confidential handling throughout the project. For content intended for a specific region or market, document localization services can adapt terminology, formats, and local conventions.
Our Document Translation Services
From individual files to certified and recurring multilingual work, we manage the level of translation support your project requires.
Standard Document Translation
We handle business and internal documents through a translation, editing, and proofreading workflow. Your files are matched with linguists who understand the subject matter, while approved terminology is managed across related content. We also retain layout and formatting where the source allows, with editable files delivered when your team needs to update, reuse, or continue working with the translated content.
Certified Document Translation
We prepare certified document translations for courts, universities, licensing boards, and other organizations with formal submission requirements. Qualified human linguists handle the translation and review, with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy included when required. Your project manager confirms the intended use, document requirements, and delivery specifications before production, while final acceptance remains with the receiving organization.
Document Formatting and Desktop Publishing
Our multilingual desktop publishing service keeps translated content aligned with the source layout across InDesign and print-ready files. The team handles tables, charts, captions, bilingual side-by-side formats, and right-to-left layouts for languages such as Arabic and Hebrew. Scanned or handwritten source documents can also be reviewed and prepared for translation when the content is clear and legible.
Large-Volume and Ongoing Translation Programs
We manage multi-document and recurring translation programs through one coordinated workflow. Translation memory, glossaries, and approved terminology keep repeated content consistent across releases and document sets. A dedicated project manager handles file intake, linguist coordination, review, updates, and delivery, giving your team one point of contact across ongoing work and multiple target languages.
Documents We Translate by Industry
We translate documents across regulated and commercial fields, matching each assignment by language pair and subject matter.
Legal Document Translation
Our legal document translation services cover contracts, agreements, NDAs, court filings, pleadings, deposition transcripts, discovery materials, exhibits, patents, and corporate filings. In legal translation, terminology must reflect the target jurisdiction and preserve the meaning of the source. Projects are assigned to linguists with relevant legal knowledge and reviewed for terminology, completeness, and consistency.
Medical and Healthcare Document Translation
We handle patient records, discharge summaries, consent forms, clinical trial protocols, case report forms, physician notes, medical device manuals, and regulatory submissions through our medical translation services. Each project is matched to the right medical language expertise, with close attention to clinical terminology and clear patient-facing communication.
Financial Document Translation
We translate annual reports, financial statements, audit reports, tax filings, bank statements, invoices, prospectuses, investor communications, and due diligence materials. Financial document translation calls for careful handling of figures, dates, terminology, and currency conventions across markets. Your files are matched with professionals who understand financial content and can keep key details consistent from source to final version.
Technical and Engineering Document Translation
Our technical document translation services support user manuals, SOPs, safety data sheets, maintenance guides, engineering specifications, installation instructions, technical drawings, CAD annotations, and quality documentation. Glossaries and translation memory help keep approved technical terms consistent across files, product updates, and recurring releases, while subject-matched language professionals handle the content with the required technical precision.
Business, Corporate, and HR Document Translation
We support employee handbooks, workplace policies, training materials, onboarding content, benefits information, internal communications, presentations, proposals, and RFP responses. For business and HR content, the wording must suit the target region while keeping policies, instructions, and internal messaging clear for your teams. Tone and terminology are managed consistently across related materials.
Academic and Educational Document Translation
We translate diplomas, transcripts, course descriptions, syllabi, research papers, dissertations, enrollment records, and school communications for academic and education settings. Grading systems, course names, and institutional terminology can differ by region, so each file is handled with close attention to how that information should read and be understood in the target language.
Government and Public Sector Document Translation
We provide government document translation services for public notices, agency correspondence, grant documents, procurement materials, policy documents, language access plans, and compliance reports. For public-facing and regulated content, we maintain agency terminology while adapting wording to plain-language and language access requirements.
Insurance and Claims Document Translation
Our insurance and claims translation service covers policies, endorsements, claim forms, adjuster reports, incident reports, medical records, correspondence, subrogation files, and coverage opinions. Because these materials often combine legal, medical, and insurance language, we match the work to professionals familiar with the subject matter. We also coordinate urgent files carefully when claim timelines or case deadlines are tight.
Marketing and Communications Document Translation
We support multilingual marketing content across brochures, catalogs, product sheets, press releases, case studies, white papers, newsletters, event materials, and sales decks. Instead of following the source line by line, the copy is shaped for the intended market so your positioning, tone, and key message remain clear while the language feels natural to local readers.
Languages We Translate
Document translation is available in 200+ languages, with each assignment matched to native or near-native linguists for the target market. Coverage includes Spanish, French, Portuguese, German, Italian, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, Russian, Ukrainian, Polish, Hindi, Tagalog, Somali, and Haitian Creole.
Regional variants, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, right-to-left scripts, and rare language pairs can be managed within the same project. For multilingual document translation, several target languages can be coordinated from one source while keeping terminology consistent across the full document set.

What Do You Need to Start a Document Translation Project?
Send the source files, source and target languages, intended use, formatting requirements, certification needs, and deadline. Include approved terminology, reference files, or a glossary when available. A project manager reviews the material first so the language requirements and delivery format are clear.
How Long Does Document Translation Take?
Turnaround depends on file length, subject matter, language pair, formatting, target languages, and review requirements. A project manager reviews the scope and confirms the delivery schedule. Rush support may be available for time-sensitive work.
Can You Handle Large or Ongoing Document Translation Projects?
Yes. We manage large and ongoing projects with project management, translation memory, glossaries, and approved terminology where needed. This keeps language aligned across recurring files and target markets while giving your team one contact.
Do You Translate Scanned or Handwritten Documents?
Yes. We can translate clear scans, photographed documents, and legible handwritten records. We review the source first to confirm the text can be read. If a section is unclear, your project manager will flag it before translation begins.
