Translation | Prices

We calculate price according to the number of source words

Since 1 April 2006 we have been calculating prices for translations and proofreading based on the number of source words. The advantage is that there is no rounding up of standard pages. The price is accurate, fixed and known before the project is started. We quote the client immediately after receiving the source text. This calculation method is the same when CAT software is used.

For price bids and tenders, where other applicants give their prices calculated according to standard pages, we are of course able to use this method too. The price per standard page is based on the average number of words for one standard page for the given language combination.

Cases when we charge differently

This calculation method cannot be used for court certified translations or with a format where the number of source words cannot be ascertained electronically. Then a preliminary estimate of the number of words is used for calculation purposes. The exact number of words can then be counted after the work has been completed. The invoice price is only then calculated according to the target number of words in the translated text.

Court certified translations

For court certified translations the price is calculated on a “standard page”. The price calculation is rounded up to one full standard page of translated text according to Act No. 36/1967 Coll., experts and interpreters, and Regulation No.37/1967 Coll under Czech law.
