A more detailed description of my translation rates
- Translating is not only typing words, it is an art. In addition to translating your document I also make sure your translation looks as close as possible to the original document. This demands a lot of precise formatting work.
- You get translations according to DIN EN 15038 standard, which means I use the second set of eyes principle - all my translations are proofread by a second professional translator skilled in the same field.
- In need of a last-minute translation? For my express service, a 30% surcharge is billed.
- The costs for any additional copy of the certified translation are € 5.00.
- Other factors that define the final price for your translation are the quality and format of the document you send me.
- As a native - born and raised in Germany - I have lots of local knowledge that could help you to settle in to your new life in Germany.
- In accordance with the small business regulation (Kleinunternehmerregelung) of § 19 (1) of the law on turnover tax (UStG) the invoice amount does not contain taxes.
- With me, you won't get a cheap translation, but a high-quality translation at a fair price.
