Chinese Translation (Simplified/Traditional)

Chinese Translation Service

For Chinese translation, we assign the right translator to the right job, depending on the intended use of the translation, the desired finish, and the field and content of the document to be translated. We will also work with you to determine the best schedule and procedures to meet your desired turnaround time. We always strive to provide professional and hospitable service that truly contributes to the realization of our clients’ business goals.

Regarding Translation Quality

Our professional translators, who are well versed in the cultural and linguistic differences between Chinese-speaking countries and Japan, will translate your text into a natural and easy-to-read translation that accurately captures the meaning of the source text. Chinese can be divided into three main categories: (1) Simplified Chinese for the continent, (2) Traditional Chinese for Taiwan, and (3) Traditional Chinese for Hong Kong. When translating from Japanese into Chinese, we assign native translators from each region to work on your request.

In addition, a skilled proofreader familiar with the target language will always double-check the translation to eliminate mistranslations, omissions, and misspellings, as well as rewrite the text to make it easier to read. For an optional fee, we also have extensive experience in the creation of more appealing text, including brush-ups, catchphrases, and transcreation.
