Translation Rates & Pricing
Translation is usually priced per word, or per minute for audiovisual content. Here's what drives the cost — and how to get an exact translation quote, backed by our Price Match Promise.
How translation is priced
Document and script translation is typically priced per word, while subtitle and audio translation can be priced per minute of content. Rates vary by language pair, subject matter and turnaround.
Because we specialise in audiovisual translation, we quote with production in mind — scripts adapted for timing and lip-sync, subtitles fitted to reading speed — so you pay for translation that's ready to record or publish, not just a literal document.
