Keep in mind that the minimum duration for an interpreting appointment is 2 hours. Shorter appointments require payment for a full 2 hours of interpreting. Appointments longer than two hours will require two interpreters.

CANCELLATION POLICY: Cancellations that are not made at least 48 hours in advance of the appointment will be billed as a regular appointment. Rescheduled appointments count as cancellations because the originally assigned time has been reserved by the interpreter for that specific time and we are not able to double book our interpreters to make up for lost time.

Interpreting FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

What is interpreting? How is it different from translating?

Interpreting conveys signed or spoken language into another language. Translating involves conveying written language from a source text into a target language.

What is the benefit of having multiple interpreters?

Interpreting requires a high degree of concentration to hear and convey that message into another language. A team of interpreters switch off to avoid fatigue and help maintain consistency and accuracy of your message. Fatigue can be a major cause of inaccuracy, so we minimize risk of this happening by the scheduling the appropriate number of interpreters for your assignment.

The interpreter who is interpreting is the active interpreter and the other interpreter is the support interpreter. Without relief, it is unrealistic to expect an interpreters to consistently accurate interpretation.
