Why GoLocalise

One partner for every European market

Rolling a campaign, series or course out across Europe usually means juggling a different supplier in every country. We do the opposite: one team, one project manager and one consistent standard across French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Scandinavian and every other European language — so your brand sounds the same wherever it plays.

You brief us in English, once. We handle the native voice casting, translation, studio direction and delivery specs for each market, and hand back broadcast-ready files that meet the local expectations of each audience — and the EU rules that increasingly govern them.

Getting it right

European accessibility, built into the job

Since 28 June 2025 the European Accessibility Act (EAA) has required a wide range of digital products and services sold in the EU — from streaming and e-commerce to banking and e-books — to be accessible. For audiovisual content that increasingly means accurate captions, subtitles and audio description, not as an afterthought but as a delivery requirement.

The Audiovisual Media Services Directive (AVMSD) already pushes broadcasters and on-demand platforms to make content continuously more accessible through subtitling, audio description and sign language, alongside European-works obligations on VOD catalogues. We produce to these standards as a matter of course — SDH and closed captions, described video, and correctly formatted subtitle files — so your European release is compliant as well as polished.

None of this is legal advice, and requirements vary by service and member state — but it is exactly the kind of detail we build into a European deliverable so it doesn't come back to bite you at QC.

Most common questions

Can one team handle several European languages at once?

Yes — that's the point of working with us. One project manager coordinates native talent, translation, studio direction and delivery across every language in your rollout, so quality and turnaround stay consistent.

Do you work with clients based in Europe?

Absolutely. Many of our clients brief us from Germany, Spain, the Netherlands, Italy, France and beyond. You brief us in English, and we handle the native-language production. We're in the London (UK/CET-adjacent) timezone, which overlaps a normal European working day.

Should I dub or subtitle for a European release?

It depends on the market. Germany, Italy, Spain and France are traditionally dubbing countries, while the Netherlands and Scandinavia favour subtitling. We'll advise per market — and often the best answer for a pan-European release is a mix.

Can you make our content EU-accessibility compliant?

We produce SDH, closed captions, subtitles and audio description to the standards expected under the European Accessibility Act and AVMSD. Requirements vary by service and country, so we scope it with you, but accessibility is built into how we deliver.

Which European languages do you cover?

All the major ones — French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Swedish and more — plus the regional variants that matter, like Castilian vs Latin American Spanish or European vs Brazilian Portuguese.

Do you cover regional variants like Belgian French, Swiss German or Flemish?

Yes. We cast and adapt to the specific market variant rather than a generic version — Belgian French for Wallonia, Swiss or Austrian German, and Flemish for Flanders (which we treat as a separate language from Dutch).

How do you keep terminology and tone consistent across languages?

We work from a shared glossary and translation memory, with one project manager across the whole job, so a term approved in one language is applied the same way in every other.

Can you deliver all our European languages to one deadline?

Yes. We schedule the languages in parallel with a dedicated project manager and agree milestones up front, so a multi-language rollout lands together rather than trickling in.

What do you need from us to quote a voice over?

Less than people expect: the script, or the draft of it, its total running time or word count, where the recording will be used, and the date you need it by. If the script is not signed off yet, send the draft anyway — we would rather quote on what exists than wait for a version that eats your deadline. A named project manager comes back with an itemised quote, normally within four working hours.

How quickly will we hear back, and who will we be dealing with?

More than half of enquiries get a reply within thirty minutes during office hours (Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm UK time), and the itemised quote normally follows within four working hours. After that you have one dedicated project manager who owns the job from brief to final file — not a ticket queue, and not a different name on every email. If it is easier, call +44 207 095 5730 and ask for them by name.

We are still pitching and the budget is not signed off. Can we still get a quote?

Yes, and it is one of the commonest reasons people get in touch. Tell us it is for a pitch and you get a figure you can put in front of your own client, itemised so it stands up to being picked apart, with no obligation and no follow-up sales calls if the pitch goes elsewhere. If it lands, the quote still holds and we already know the project.

What if we find a cheaper quote somewhere else?

Send it over. Our Price Match Promise covers like-for-like work, and because our quotes are itemised you can see exactly what is being compared — which is usually where the gap turns out to be, in a revision pass, a licence or a delivery format that the cheaper figure quietly left out. If it really is the same work for less, we match it.
