Common questions

Which contracts can you translate?
Any written contract or agreement: employment contracts, rental and lease agreements, sales and purchase contracts, service and freelance contracts, and their amendments. Many offices ask for a certified translation of a foreign-language contract, but requirements differ from office to office, so check with the office handling your case what exactly it needs.
My contract has several pages. How is it priced?
One order covers the whole contract. The price is calculated in standard pages (350 words): every page with content counts as at least one standard page, a very dense page can count as more, and blank pages don't count. The base price covers a short contract; each further standard page is added at a fixed rate for your language pair. The exact total is shown and confirmed before you pay. Very long contracts cannot be priced automatically — the order form tells you when that is the case, and you can contact us for a quote instead.
My contract has annexes and an amendment. Is everything included?
We translate everything you upload, and every uploaded page is counted and charged, including annexes, schedules and amendments. If an office only needs the main contract, upload only the pages it needs — and if you are unsure, ask the office before you order.
Parts of my contract are handwritten, or I only have a scan. Is that a problem?
No. Handwritten entries, initials, signatures and stamps are rendered in the translation, and anything we cannot read is marked as illegible rather than guessed. A clear scan or photo of every page is enough: PDF, JPG or PNG all work. We translate exactly what we receive, so make sure every page is complete and readable.
Is my contract kept confidential?
Always. All documents are encrypted at rest and in transit, only your assigned translator can see the original, and your documents are permanently deleted 30 days after delivery. We never train AI on your data.
Can you translate a German contract into English?
Yes. We translate contracts from German into English and from English into German, and from Arabic, Turkish, French, Spanish, Russian, Chinese or Polish into German or English.
Is the translation legally binding?
A certified translation confirms that the translation is complete and faithful to the original. It is not a new contract and does not replace the original, which remains the legal document. The translator translates the contract as it is written and does not check, explain or give advice on its content — for questions about the contract itself, please ask a lawyer.
