How much does it cost to translate English patent documents?

Time : 2025-04-03Hits : 11

  Patent documents play a vital role in the patent application process. They not only record the core concepts and implementation methods of the invention, but also involve a large number of professional terms and legal terms. Therefore, translating patent documents is not just a language conversion, but also requires a deep understanding of the relevant technical and legal background.

  1. Challenges of patent translation

  Patent documents generally contain invention patent applications, abstracts, drawings, instructions, and claims, etc., with a fixed format. Unlike ordinary translation or other high-difficulty technical translations, the difficulty of patent translation is mainly reflected in the accurate transmission of proprietary technical vocabulary and legal terms. In order to ensure the quality of translation, translators not only need to have a solid technical background, but also need to be familiar with patent-related legal terms.

  2. Patent translation fee standards

  The following is the English patent document translation price provided by Artlangs Translation Company, for reference only:

  Chinese-English translation (ordinary level): 150-200 yuan/thousand words, suitable for ordinary reading scenarios such as emails and letters, as well as common business document translations such as charters and certification certificates.

  Chinese-English translation (professional level): 210 - 300 yuan/1,000 words, suitable for the translation of professional documents such as brochures, contract agreements, user manuals, etc.

  Notes:

  The above quotation is only a reference price. The actual accurate quotation will be affected by many factors, such as the difficulty of the manuscript content, the complexity of technical processing, delivery time requirements, typesetting requirements, and whether foreign proofreading is required.

  Artlangs Translation strictly abides by the national standards of the People's Republic of China "Translation Service Specifications Part 1: Written Translation" (GB/T1936.1-2008) and "Translation Service Translation Quality Requirements" (GB/T18692-2005) to ensure that the translation quality reaches the professional level of the industry.

  Other factors affecting patent translation prices:

  Technical difficulty: The more complex the technical field involved in the patent document, the greater the difficulty and cost of translation.

  Time limit requirements: If the translation needs to be completed urgently, the cost may increase.

  Typesetting and proofreading requirements: If additional typesetting work or foreign proofreading is required, the cost will also increase accordingly.
