Free Translation Services Quote

The process of beginning a translation project typically begins with a free quote for translation services. Translation quotes are most often requested by email. Clients sometime telephone or send a fax as an initial inquiry.

We can quote translation services for essentially any text we can read. Legibility of the text is important so scanned documents, or electronic document source files are preferred. Sending quote requests by email along with any descriptive information about the target audience is usually sufficient for translation companies to quote services. The target language for translation also needs to be stated of course.

Our objective is to email clients translation services quotes as soon as possible. Usually this occurs within two hours at most. Often it occurs within less than 30 minutes.

Clients send files for translation in numerous different formats including MS Word (ideal since text is editable), Powerpoint, PDFs, and images too. Fees for translation services are calculated according to the number of words in the source file. Occasionally quotes are based on resulting target word counts in cases when word counts in the source file can’t be determined with enough accuracy.

Client sometimes telephone to get a rough idea of translation costs prior to requesting a formal quote. We can sometimes provide a rough idea of costs over the phone, or at least quote a per word rate corresponding to the language(s) associated with the project.
