Translation Services

Professional translation services from and into most West and East European languages.  We have a wide variety of:

All our translators are professional linguists.

Three categories of service are offered:

  • For information Only    
    For translations which are not intended for publication and do not require certification.
  • Certified for Legal Purposes
    For translations of legal documents like birth and marriage certificates, degrees, etc. for legal use within Great Britain.
  • For Publication
    For translations like books and articles intended for publication; price includes a fee for proof-reading.

Charges depend on the language required as well as the nature and intended use of the material. Rates are quoted per 1,000 words. Minimum fee for short texts up to 500 words £60 + VAT.

Following a recent review of the MFL Unit, the existing Translation and Interpreting service will cease with effect from 1 November 2014. Future translation and interpreting work will only be undertaken if a minimum income threshold is met - this would normally mean documents of at least 10,000 words or multi-lingual projects.
