Price calculation for translation services
Our standard policy is to charge per source word. Exceptions may be made when the source format is non-editable and thus it is difficult to take a source word count. In such cases, the price is calculated per target word count.
We are, nevertheless, willing to address requirements of our clients and calculate the price based on the count of characters, line or standard pages.
The prices are calculated by taking the following into consideration:
- Language combination
- Number of words, number of repeating segments
- Turn-around time
- Source format
- Formatting and design requirements
- Type of text: general or specialised
- Other special requirements
We apply a minimum charge to every order.
Discounts
As we use translation memory tools for translation, we analyse each project and apply corresponding discounts depending on the number of fully or partially repeated segments.
Volume discounts are also available for large projects and long-term clients.
Price calculation for interpreting services
Prices for interpreting services are calculated on an hourly basis.
Please note that as 2 interpreters are working in the case of simultaneous interpreting the work hours are always doubled.
The minimum rate is 4 hours.
Price calculation for other language services
Editing and proofreading services are charged per word or hour depending on the particularities of the project.
Prices for transcription services are charged per minute.
Prices for DTP services are charged per page, project or hour.
