Translation and Interpreting Charges

General Charges

This is an indication of my charges for translations from English into German and vice versa. Please visit my Charges for Certified Translations page for detailed prices for providing certified translations of official documents. See also my charges for notarized translations. To obtain a firm offer for the translation project you have in mind, please contact me. You are under no obligation to take me up on the offer.

Cost of general translation services for UK business customers: From £65 per thousand words, minimum fee of £35. Significant discounts for texts with more than 5000 words and for orders by repeat customers.

If you have a large volume of short texts for translation on a (more or less) regular basis, I reduce my minimum fee, and for texts above the minimum fee level, I charge an hourly rate of £25 pro rata. This facilitates a long-term mutual cooperation that is profitable for you and me.

Preferential rates apply for private customers.

Rates for other services, like interpreting, proof-reading etc., charged on an hourly or daily basis (£25 per hour minimum), plus expenses, to be agreed prior to acceptance of job.

Rates for non-UK customers as above plus appropriate bank charges. Currency of payment as agreed in advance. Please contact me for a quotation.

Pre-payments may be agreed for larger assignments. All invoices to be paid within 30 days of date of invoice.
