We used Inbox Translation for some urgent work – not only did they translate the copy in 12 hours, but the cost was highly competitive. We will use them for any future translation work and would not hesitate to recommend them to other companies. Thank you to Alina for the fantastic job!

In the world of international commerce, translation services have long served as support pillars that have facilitated some of the biggest cross-border transactions in the world. The earliest form of business translation was probably sign language, which made it easier to buy or sell from a tradesman who neither spoke, read nor wrote the local language. As the complexity of transactions increased, the need for professional translators in this field kept growing – until business translation eventually grew into the massive industry it is today.
How we can help you
We cater to the diverse requirements of business communities around the globe, so our translators need to be experts in several areas. First, they need to be native-level experts in at least two languages; second, they need to have a broad perspective on international commerce and its documentation needs; third, they need to have in-depth knowledge about various regulatory and compliance matters in both countries. Their skills need to encompass all legal, financial, commercial and linguistic aspects of a business translation project.
In many ways, business translators have the hardest task of all their peers because their domain is critical to the health of an economy – two of them, in many cases! Misworded contracts, poorly described clauses, erroneous phrases or even misplaced punctuation can turn a positive situation into a negative one in the blink of an eye.
These are just some of the key domain areas that our business translation professionals are trained and experienced in:

Why us?
Top reasons why Inbox Translation should be your ‘go-to’ translation partner:
These are just a few of the reasons why our clients never go anywhere else.
Accuracy is our aim
In business translation, accuracy plays a much more vital role than most people suspect. There is no such thing as a ‘minor’ error because of the ramifications involved in making a mistake in translation; a single error can lead to lost contracts, legal liability, product malfunctions and many other catastrophic situations. The worst part about inaccuracy is that it instantly diminishes the goodwill that is necessary for a business to operate successfully in any market.We understand the need to be as accurate as a thread going through the eye of a needle, so when you entrust your work to us, you can rest assured that we will safeguard that privilege and deliver well beyond expectations every time. If you have an upcoming project, our professional business translation services are at your disposal.

Confidentiality policy
Our promise is simple: we only share your documents with the translators who’ll be working on them. They are bound by confidentiality clauses in their contract with us and also by the code of ethics of professional associations they are members of. If need be, we can also sign an NDA.
Translation process step by step (from enquiry to delivery)
Briefing
The more we know about you and your needs, the smoother the process, the better the quality.
Proposal
Not that kind of proposal, though we have translated love letters and wedding vows before 🙂.
Approval and queries
If the fee fits your budget and you agree with the delivery date, all we need is your written approval (an email will usually suffice) and we can get started.
Translation
Our language ninjas will research, adapt, write, rewrite, use online and offline tools in order to come up with the best solution.
Revision
With fresh eyes, the translator will check the text and make corrections and edits as needed.
Editing and proofreading
This step is optional and it will add a second translator to the team, who will check the translation against the source.
Approval of edits
If applicable, the amended text is reviewed once more by the translator, who will approve or reject proposed changes.
Quality assurance
The final translation is checked by the project manager to ensure it complies with your requirements, it is complete and accurate.
Delivery
Pretty self-explanatory, right? It’s the moment you’ve been (im)patiently waiting for: that ‘ping’ in your inbox telling you your translation is ready.
Feedback
Any comments or questions that we can address are always welcome. If there are any small changes needed, we offer two rounds of amends.
