The bid is a legally binding document that all parties to the bidding process must abide by. It has strong logic, cannot be inconsistent or ambiguous, and the language must be concise and brief. As a professional translation field, bid translation covers a variety of document types from bidding documents to tender documents, and there are differences in the requirements for bid translation in different industry fields.

　　In order to ensure the accuracy and professionalism of bid translation, it is crucial to choose an experienced translation company. When selecting a translation company, it is important to focus on the quality of the translators. It is not enough to know English to be competent for bid translation. Professional translators should have a high level of professionalism and rich translation experience, especially in the translation of bids in this professional field.

　　How does the bid translation service cost?

　　1. Industry field affects the cost

　　The difficulty of translating bids in different fields is different, and the charging standards are also different. Bids in fields such as medicine and chemical industry are difficult to translate because they involve a large number of professional vocabulary and complex formulas. They require experienced translators to complete them, so the cost is relatively high. The translation fees for some relatively general and less professional tenders will be lower. Therefore, before choosing a translation company, customers need to clarify their own needs and fully communicate with the translation company to measure the rationality of the fees.

　　2. The number of translated words affects the cost

　　The content of the tender is rich and varied, and the number of translated words is one of the important factors affecting the cost. Generally speaking, translation companies will charge according to the number of words in the foreign language. If the content of the tender is large, the customer should communicate with the translation company in advance about the completion time and cost, and ensure that the translation work can be completed in time while ensuring the quality and cost-effectiveness of the translation, so as to avoid affecting the progress of the bidding.

　　3. Differences in tender types and languages

　　Tenders are divided into tenders and bids, which can be divided into international tenders and domestic tenders according to the scope of the bidding. Different types of tenders differ in content and format, and the difficulty of translation is also different, which will affect the translation price. At the same time, the language translated is also a key factor. Common languages ​​such as English have relatively abundant translation resources and relatively stable prices; while some small languages ​​have fewer professional translators, are more difficult to translate, and the prices are often higher.

　　4. Translation quality and translator experience

　　The quality requirements of translation directly affect the price. For bid translations with extremely high accuracy and professional requirements, translation companies will arrange experienced and highly professional translators to handle them, and the corresponding fees will also increase.

　　Generally speaking, the translation price of Chinese-English bids is about 150-200 CNY/thousand Chinese characters excluding spaces. Of course, this price is for reference only. Bid translation will be affected by the various factors mentioned above, and the final price will be determined according to the specific project requirements.
