Translation Rates Translation rates are charged on a per word basis, based on the source text. Rates also depend on various factors such as: total volume, urgency, technicality of the text, if formatting is to be included, etc.
Editing/Proofreading Rates Editing/proofreading rates are charged on an hourly basis.
Machine Translation Post-Editing Rates Machine Translation Post-Editing (MTPE) is charged on an hourly basis.
PAYMENT POLICY
Payment Method Payments are to be made by direct bank transfer. Upon completion of your translation project, an invoice will be issued stating all payment terms. Please note that clients are responsible for any bank charges incurred. Surcharges Surcharges may be charged for any urgent work carried out outside of office hours, e.g. evenings, weekends or public holidays. Surcharges may also be charged for any PDF documents which require formatting before and after translation.
Cancellation Fees If a project has been started and is cancelled before completion, translation rates will be charged for the total number of source words that have already been translated. Similarly, editing/proofreading rates will be charged for the total amount of time already spent on the project.
Late Payment Fees All invoices are to be paid within 30 days of the invoice date. If payment is not received within this timeframe, a late payment fee may be charged according to UK Government interest rates.
