How do translation companies charge for various translation services?
There are many translation companies in the market, and the translation prices vary greatly. Too high or too low fees often affect the quality of translation, causing customers to be confused when choosing translation services. So, how to choose a translation company with transparent prices and clear charging standards? Artlangs Translation Company has compiled price lists and charging standards for different types of translation for your reference. English translation needs are more common, so in this article we will take the price of English translation as an example.
1. Charging standards for written translation
The fee for English written translation is usually 140 yuan to 200 yuan per thousand words. However, if the customer's needs are more professional, such as finance, law, biomedicine and other fields, these fields require translators to have rich translation experience and high translation ability, so the price is relatively high.
2. Charging standards for multimedia translation
Common types of multimedia translation include English audio and video dictation, subtitle translation and audio and video dictation.
The price of English audio and video translation is 100-150 yuan/minute;
The price of English subtitle translation (such as srt subtitle file and text content translation) is 60-100 yuan/minute;
The price of English audio and video dictation is 80 yuan/minute.
In addition, multimedia translation also includes supporting services such as subtitle production and multilingual dubbing, and the charges need to be evaluated according to the specific project needs.
3. Fees for written translation of certificates
Common certificate translations include passports, birth certificates, ID cards, marriage certificates, divorce certificates, real estate certificates, household registration books, degree certificates, graduation certificates, driver's licenses, etc. Taking the translation of English birth certificates as an example, the fee is 100-150 yuan/page. The price of translation of certificates in small languages is slightly higher, and the translation fees for different types of certificates will vary.
4. Interpretation fee standards
There is a large demand for English interpretation services, and English interpretation includes simultaneous interpretation, consecutive interpretation, and accompanying interpretation.
The price of English simultaneous interpretation is 5000-8000 yuan/person/day, usually requiring two interpreters;
The price of English consecutive interpretation is generally 2500-5000 yuan/person/day;
The price of English accompanying interpretation and English exhibition translation is 1000-2500 yuan/person/day.
The price of interpretation will vary according to the industry and field of the customer. The price of interpretation of small languages needs to be consulted by customer service, and the price is usually related to the qualifications of the interpreter and the type of interpretation.
