How much does it cost to translate Chinese-English agreements?

**Analysis of Arrow's Fees for Chinese-to-English Agreement Translation** In today's globalized business arena, domestic and foreign companies are cooperating more and more frequently. When it comes to important documents such as agreements, it is often necessary to translate Chinese agreements into English to ensure smooth communication and cooperation between the two parties. Since most domestic companies do not have full-time translators, it has become a wise choice to cooperate with professional translation companies. So, how does Arrow charge for Chinese-to-English agreement translation? Let's take a deeper look. **1. Factors affecting the fees for Chinese-to-English agreement translation** 1. **Languages involved**: Different languages have different prices in the translation market. For languages such as English, Japanese, and Korean, which are more common and have a large number of people studying and using them in China, their translation prices are relatively affordable. However, for some relatively niche languages, such as Spanish, Arabic, and French, due to the relative scarcity of professional translation talents, their fees may be relatively high. The specific fees will also be adjusted according to the complexity of the agreement. 2. **Layout requirements**: Generally speaking, the translation agreements provided by Arrow will strive to be concise and clear in layout, or follow the original style. In this case, usually no additional typesetting fee will be charged. However, if the client has special typesetting requirements, a certain fee may be charged according to the specific needs. 3. **Delivery time**: Arrow will usually quote according to the normal delivery time. If the client needs an expedited translation, a certain expedited fee may be incurred. The specific fee standard can be determined through negotiation between the two parties. **II. Charging method for Chinese-to-English agreement translation** The fee for Chinese-to-English agreement translation is usually calculated based on the number of words in the document. The specific statistical method follows the National Standard of the People's Republic of China "Translation Service Specification Part 1: Written Translation" (GB/T1936.1 - 2008). Through the review/word count function of Microsoft Word2010, the price is calculated in the form of word count × unit price/1000, and the unit is RMB/thousand words. If it is a PDF document, it can be converted into a Word document with the help of a tool for word count. The final price will be determined based on the translation language and translation difficulty. Generally speaking, the unit price of the Chinese-to-English agreement will fluctuate within a certain range, and the actual contract translation price will be determined based on the specific translation needs and translation volume. The specific price of agreement translation can be learned by consulting customer service online. **III.

After confirming that the format and translation are correct, the manuscript is handed over to the review project team. - **Second review by the review group**: After receiving the manuscript, the review group conducts a simultaneous review with the original manuscript. If any problems are found, it will be returned to the translator for modification. - **Second review by the typesetting group**: After the review group completes the review, the manuscript will be handed over to the typesetting group for format review. If any format problems are found, it will be returned to the relevant department for adjustment. - **Final comprehensive review**: After confirming that all problems have been resolved, all groups conduct a final review. If the comprehensive review determines that the content and format are completely consistent with the original manuscript, and the context and professional terms are the same, it is deemed to be passed and the translation will be handed over to the customer. **V.
