FAQs

Into what languages do you translate?
I translate from German to English (UK/US).

What turnaround can I expect?
This will depend on the following:

  • The length of the document to be translated.
  • The level of complexity, i.e., the established company terms and lingo, the research required and other requirements to be followed
  • The translation format. How much formatting, e.g., images, photos, tables and page layout is required.
  • Legibility. Is there a lot of redacted text, copied pages where some parts are illegible, or is there handwritten text?

How do I pay for the service?
I will email my invoice. Invoices are due within two weeks of invoice receipt. I accept payment via PayPal, Venmo, US check, US and European direct bank transfer.
