About Chinese Mandarin voice over
Find the right Chinese Mandarin voice for your project
Mandarin is only one of several major Chinese languages: Cantonese, Hokkien and Shanghainese each have their own pronunciation and vocabulary, and none of them substitute for Mandarin.
This language is spoken by more than a billion people and is the official language of mainland China and Taiwan, and one of Singapore's four official languages.
Even within Mandarin, the accent matters: a neutral mainland delivery sounds different from the softer tone typical of Taiwan, so it is worth settling which one fits the market before booking talent.
At GoLocalise, professional Mandarin voice actors record every project in approved studios. One team handles everything from script review and casting through to editing and final delivery. The result is a voice that fits the audience you are speaking to, not just the brief on paper.

Case study
Chinese Mandarin voice over case study
Animation · MandarinMandarin voiceover for a global animation project
An international client needed voiceover and audio-visual translation services for an animation aimed at a worldwide audience, requiring the original English script and on-screen text translated and recorded in German, French and Mandarin Chinese.
Our team of Chinese translators worked through the script for accuracy and cultural relevance, and we presented the client with a shortlist of vetted Mandarin voiceover artists.
The client selected their preferred voice and directed the session in our London studio, working directly with our sound engineers to shape the final performance.
“The final audio-visual product was met with high praise from the client.”

We have used GoLocalise on a regular basis for projects in a number of languages. The service we receive is great. The team is always friendly and professional. The voiceovers we receive are of a very high quality and the turnaround is extremely quick. We are very happy to recommend GoLocalise to other businesses.
We’ve worked with the GoLocalise team on countless video projects and have always had the same consistent, great experience. Not only are they responsive and quick on turnaround, I can always trust the VO will be done right – they are always 100% clear with communication and ensure their talent is prepared to record by asking necessary questions upfront before recording. Highly recommended and will definitely work with them on future projects.
It was a pleasure to work with David and the team at GoLocalise. David gave me lots of help and advice, guiding me through my first subtitling project. He really knows his stuff! The experience was completely pain-free. I would not hesitate to recommend GoLocalise – outstanding work at a good price.
They’re reliable, adaptive and obsessed with quality. And while you can never be 100% guaranteed of perfection, you can be sure GoLocalise will go the extra mile to get it right every time. Whether that’s hiring extra resources, hopping on multiple calls or even changing their internal processes, they’ll do what it takes. We’ve worked with them now for over 5 years and we are truly thankful to have such a strong localisation partner for our business.

Most common questions
Mandarin is the official language of mainland China and Taiwan and the most widely understood form of Chinese. Other varieties — Cantonese, Hokkien, Shanghainese — have distinct pronunciation, tones and vocabulary, and are treated as separate voice over services rather than accents of Mandarin.
