Translation – Sliding Scale Per Submission

Translation rates are billed according to the higher word count between the source language and target language.

All rates listed apply to the majority of English<->French, English<->Spanish and
French<->Spanish assignments. The same rates may or may not apply to other language pairs. Language resources for some languages may be difficult to source and, in such circumstances, premium rates may apply. Please call Toll Free 1-888-722-3515 (or e-mail) to discuss your specific requirements.

A Note on Translation Rates:

The translation sector is not immune to the supply and demand dynamics of the marketplace. In that context, our standard or posted rates should be viewed as a guide.

Also, not all translators are created equal. As a translation agency we do our best to place translation assignments with the best available resource(s). Competent resources for some languages or technical topics are more difficult to source than others. (Tight deadline requirements may also be a significant cost element under such circumstances.)

As an example, there are only two resources listed in our database that qualify to certify Japanese to English document translations. Moreover, these resources may not necessarily be available on short notice. When they are available, the costs quoted to us may be high – in fact, way higher than our posted rates.

It's important to keep in mind that premium rates may also apply based on technical difficulty, urgency, and file type (since file formatting may be required).

Finally, we do want your business and we will quote you a competitive price to get it. But, we will not compromise our quality standards to get business (see the following: Where to Find Cheap Translation).


Proofreading included in per word rate when CILFO Translations/Traductions has done the translation. The word rate is applied to the higher word count between the source and target languages.
