Certified Translation<\/p>

What do you know about certified translation?\u00a0In Portugal, a sworn translator does not exist, and therefore the entire official certification process goes through notaries, solicitors, lawyers, etc…<\/span><\/p>

This service may be requested at BabeliUM upon translation request.\u00a0BabeliUM translates for a vast range of institutions, associations and business sectors, such as tourism, health, renewable energy, training, cooperation and solidarity, agri-food, construction, cultural industries, footwear, amongst many others.

WHAT TO DO IN CASE I NEED TRANSLATION SERVICES?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The requester must send an email to tradbabelium@elach.uminho.pt, specifying the source language and the target language (language combination: Portuguese-English, English-Portuguese, or other), deadline, field or nature of work (technical, specialised, legal, certificate, etc.), as well as the length of the document (approximate number of pages). We also need the requester to provide us with a direct contact, phone number and\/or email, in order to formalise the request.<\/p>\n

DO I HAVE TO PROVIDE ANY MORE INFORMATION?<\/strong><\/p>\n

In order to provide the most reliable budget possible, it would be best if you could provide us the document to be translated in its original form, in editable format or scanned. Therefore, you should attach the document(s) to your request so we can analyse and give you a budget.<\/p>\n

HOW IS MY REQUEST PROCESSED?<\/strong><\/p>\n

On receipt of your request, the requester will be contacted by email or telephone in order to be informed of the conditions regarding the translation service. In parallel, an email with the budget will also be sent if requested.<\/p>\n

The translation service will only be performed after the requester’s acceptance, by email, of our conditions presented in the budget. The work will only be carried out upon adjudication , by email, of our conditions presented in the budget.<\/span><\/p>\n

HOW CAN I MAXIMIZE THE COSTS \/ BENEFITS OF A TRANSLATION AGENCY?<\/strong><\/p>\n

When thinking about a translation agency, try to specify your project as much as possible . Make a list of what is important to you and email or fax the translation team. Clearly explain the nature and specificity of your document. What working languages are involved? <\/span>Is it a scientific translation? Is terminology available? Don’t forget to ask the important questions ahead of time. Remember that time constraints can affect the price and accuracy of a translation .<\/span><\/p>\n

WHY IS THERE SUCH A BIG DIFFERENCE IN PRICES IN PROFESSIONAL TRANSLATION?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The diverse translation agencies have varying strengths and weaknesses and work on different scales. You should consider the following questions:<\/p>\n

\u2022 What is the degree of experience and training of translators?<\/p>\n

\u2022 Is the translator aware of the technology available to improve accuracy, coherency and consistency throughout the document?<\/p>\n

\u2022 Is revision\/proofreading included?<\/p>\n

\u2022 Is professional or technical expertise needed?<\/p>\n

\u2022 Is there a responsible project manager?<\/p>\n

\u2022 Is there a team of translators or just one?<\/p>\n

The more questions you make before accepting the offer, the less surprised you will be when the project is returned to you.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

DOES BABELIUM ONLY PERFORM TRANSLATIONS INTO PORTUGUESE?<\/b><\/p>

No. As BabeliUM has a team of native collaborators in several languages, it can offer a wide range of language combinations, whether involving or not Portuguese. However, we suggest that you send us an email indicating the working languages, as well as the type and specificity of the text\/document to be translated.
