MW Translations

The Art & Science of Communication

The Rates shown here are indicative and are for a non-technical translation of 1,000 to 3,000 words with a turn-around time of 3 working days.
The rates will be higher for work which requires specialist technical translation, or for work with tight deadlines or with a lower word-count.
The rates will be lower for work with longer deadlines or a high word-count.

Turn-around Time

3 days minimum (i.e. work arrives on day 1 and is returned by the end of day 3).
For texts greater than 3,000 words, allow 3,000 words per day capacity per translator (i.e., a 9,000 word job would require 3 days for the first 3,000 words and 2 additional days for the remaining 6,000).
