Polish translation services

Polish translation is priced per word for text and per minute for audiovisual work, depending on volume, subject matter and turnaround. Deciding how brand and product names are declined does not change the rate — send your files for a free, itemised quote, backed by our Price Match Promise.

Yes. Native Polish linguists translate every project and a second reviews it for accuracy, consistency and correct case endings — including on any brand or product names carried through the text, which is exactly where an inconsistent or foreign-sounding translation tends to show up first.

Yes — Polish translation, subtitling and voice over all come from one in-house team, so the decision on how your brand name is declined is set once at the brief and applied consistently across the translated script, the subtitles and the recorded voice track alike.

Polish nouns take a different ending depending on their grammatical role — subject, object, possessor and so on — across seven cases. It affects ordinary text and brand names alike: a name left undeclined, the way machine translation and some style guides prefer, can read as foreign rather than natural, fluent Polish to a native reader.

Either can work, and we ask this at the brief stage rather than deciding sentence by sentence. A name that declines reads as more natural Polish; a name locked in its original form protects brand recognition across markets. What we avoid is mixing both within one project, which reads as an inconsistency rather than a considered choice.

Yes — audiovisual is our specialisation. We deliver spotted SRT/VTT and timed two-column voice-over scripts, plus translated text when you need it.

That is exactly why the case decision has to happen before translation, not during it. Once we agree whether the name declines, every appearance across the script, the subtitles and the voice-over follows the same rule automatically, so nothing needs correcting after the fact or looks inconsistent from one scene to the next.

For most business and media content, yes. Standard Polish, the variety used in national broadcast and print, is understood across Poland and by Polish-speaking communities in the UK, Germany, the US and elsewhere. Regional dialects rarely affect scripted corporate or consumer content, so one script usually serves every market.

Most short documents are delivered within 24 to 48 hours. Word count, subject complexity and turnaround all move the date, and your project manager will confirm the timeline at the start.

Less than people expect: the document, script or subtitle file, its word count, what the text is actually for, and the date you need it by. A draft is fine — we would rather quote on what exists than wait for a final version that eats your deadline. A named project manager comes back with an itemised quote, normally within four working hours.

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.

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.
