German Translations by Professional Linguists

Approximately 100 million people speak German as a first language – more native speakers than any other language in the European Union. It’s the official language of Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein, and one of the three official languages of Belgium. Dialects of German are also commonly spoken throughout Switzerland and in parts of France and Italy. There are even large German-speaking communities outside of Europe, including 5 million German speakers in the United States.

We work with more than 150 translators around the world, including numerous translators who have mastered the German language. All of our professionals are verified native speakers, so you’re guaranteed to receive your text free of inaccuracies and awkward wording. Their firsthand knowledge of the German culture allows them to adapt your translation to various settings and circumstances.

We also translate from German into English and other languages. If you need a certified translation of your German birth certificate, marriage certificate, or physician’s license, for example, we’re accustomed to such assignments.

Regardless of the size of the project, our turnaround time is impressive. We translate more than 274,000 words per day, and our translators are available to work evenings and weekends, when needed. Whether your project is a short official document or a lengthy manual, we guarantee that you will receive it by the specified deadline or sooner.

We assign a project manager to each assignment – someone you can contact at any time with questions or updates.

How Much Does a Translation Into German Cost?

For new customers or large texts (more than 5,000 words), we may offer significant discounts. A surcharge may apply for urgent jobs that need several translators working simultaneously.
