How the final quote is calculated
Factors that affect certified translation cost
Two documents with the same physical page count can require different amounts of translation, formatting and review work.
Language Pair
Common language combinations may have wider translator availability than rare or regional language pairs.
Page and Word Count
A short certificate usually requires less translation than a dense contract or multi-page report.
Document Complexity
Tables, columns, handwriting, seals and unusual layouts can increase preparation time.
Specialist Terminology
Legal, medical, financial and technical material may require subject-specific translator experience.
Turnaround Time
Urgent translation costs more because the work and review must be prioritised within a shorter period.
Certification Route
Notarization, sworn translation or apostille-related handling adds steps beyond standard certification.
Pricing methods
Per-page, per-word or complete-project pricing
The fairest pricing method depends on the type and density of the source document.
Price Per Page
Commonly used for short personal and official documents where formatting and certification are significant parts of the work.
- Birth and marriage certificates
- Passports and identity documents
- Short official letters
- Simple forms and civil records
Price Per Word
Often used when the amount of work is better represented by the actual volume of text rather than physical page count.
- Contracts and agreements
- Legal and court documents
- Reports and correspondence
- Medical or technical content
Fixed Project Quote
Used for document packs, repeated templates or projects where several files must be reviewed and managed together.
- Immigration document packs
- Academic application bundles
- Corporate and compliance files
- Multilingual document projects
Possible additional costs
Services not automatically included in every quote
Only add an extra certification or delivery service when it is required by the receiving organisation or your submission method.

Pricing questions
Frequently asked questions about translation cost
Upload the complete file when you need an exact figure rather than a general starting estimate.
Request a Fixed PriceHow much does a certified translation cost?
The published certified translation rates start from $160 per page for 24-hour service, $180 per page for 12-hour service and $190 per page for eligible same-day or two-hour work.
The final price depends on the document, page count, language pair, complexity, formatting and deadline.
What are the translation-only rates?
Translation-only starting rates are $100 per page for 24-hour service, $120 per page for 12-hour service and $130 per page for eligible same-day or two-hour service.
Why does urgent translation cost more?
Urgent work must be assigned, translated, formatted and checked within a compressed period. The price reflects priority handling and the translator capacity reserved for the deadline.
Are certified translations priced per page or per word?
Short certificates and forms are commonly priced per page. Longer contracts, reports, letters and text-heavy files may be priced per word or as a complete project.
What counts as one page?
The file must be reviewed before page-based pricing is confirmed. Front-and-back documents, dense pages, attachments, stamps, handwriting and substantial tables can affect the amount of work required.
Is the Certificate of Accuracy included?
Yes. The published certified translation price includes a signed Certificate of Accuracy together with the completed translation.
Are notarization and apostille services included?
They are separate service steps and are not automatically included in the standard certified rate. Only request them when the receiving organisation specifically requires notarization, apostille or legalisation.
View notarized translation services or view apostille translation services .
Are hard copies included in the price?
Digital PDF delivery is included in the published service information. Printed copies and postal or courier delivery may carry an additional charge depending on the destination and delivery method.
Can I receive a translation within two hours?
Two-hour delivery is available for eligible documents during working hours. Availability depends on the language pair, document length, readability, formatting and current translator capacity.
Can several documents be quoted together?
Yes. Upload the complete document set so repeated names, terminology, page counts and certification requirements can be reviewed as one project.
How do I receive an exact certified translation price?
Upload a clear copy of every page and state the source language, target language, receiving organisation, certification requirement and exact deadline. The fixed price and available turnaround are then confirmed before work begins.
