Prices

– Accurate specialist translations – straight-forward pricing

Invoices for translation work are based on the size and the level of difficulty of the text.

The size is determined by the amount of standard lines (of 55 characters each) of the completed translation.

An initial quote is therefore always based on the text to be translated, whilst the final amount of lines may vary slightly depending on each language.
Our text-count programme will carry out an accurate count of lines. Proof of the count can be provided, on request, together with the invoice.

The more difficult the text to be translated, the more time is required and the higher the demands on the translator. This will result in a staggered price per line.

The basic prices are distinguished by the foreign language or the language group. This is due the extent and learnability of each language and to the availability of lexical sources.
Nonetheless, we can only provide you with a binding price after having looked through your texts.

Our basic prices for each language group please refer to the German language version.

Our minimum price per assignment and language is € 25.00, Far Eastern language € 40.00.
Prices for editing and proofreading of texts that were not translated by us will be charged hourly at € 45.00.
All prices are exclusive of VAT.
For large projects we can work out an overall price and may allow for special conditions.
Translations for publication will be checked by a second translator. This may require a surcharge of up to 20%.
