Omnilingua Translation Cost Evaluation

How much does a translation cost?

The cost of a translation varies according to the language your document is to be translated into and the type of text. Urgent translations, certified/legal translations as well as the sworn affidavit procedure certifying your document are factors, along with other peculiarities, that influence the price. Our translation agency guarantees the proofreading of all translations.
The unit of measurement for calculating the size of a translation is the "file". According to the "Associazione Nazionale Italiana Traduttori e Interpreti" (Italian National Association of Translators and Interpreters), a file consists of 25 lines of 55 characters each, excluding spaces, i.e. 1,375 characters, excluding spaces.
OMNILINGUA, as a translation agency, evaluates the number of files contained in translations and the number of hours required for our interpreting services. The minimum facturable import for a translation is equal to one file.
