FAQs about Translations and Interpretations
1. Do you translate and interpret in any language? COUNTERPOINT offers reliable and economical translation and interpretation services in most languages.
2. What is the cost of a translation or interpretation? Translation estimates are based on the nature of the documents to be translated (i.e., business, legal, technical), the language direction, the size of the translation, and the required turnaround time. The final cost is based on a computer word count of the translated document. If the document needs to be notarized and certified, there is an additional charge. For an estimate of costs, documents may be e-mailed, faxed, or mailed to us. Interpretation charges are based on the nature of the requirement (i.e., legal, medical, business), the language direction, and travel distance (if any).
3. How long does it take to complete a translation? Our turnaround time is based on length and degree of complexity. Our average return for short, general documents in more common languages is 4—6 business days. Longer, more involved documents take more time.
4. Do you need the original document in order to translate? If the document is something that will be used for legal purposes, we need to see the original. We will make a copy of it and return the original. We do not take responsibility for the original in case of loss or destruction. If the document is not of a legal nature, we do not need the original. In this case, it can be faxed, e-mailed, or sent by regular mail to our office.
