Get an instant estimate based on document type, word count, language pair, and turnaround. No signup. No email required. Results match our real per-word rates.
Translation HelpDesk prices certified translation at $0.05 per source word for common language pairs at standard turnaround. We add a small percentage for low-resource languages (where qualified linguists are rarer) and for rush delivery. The calculator multiplies these factors to give you a realistic estimate.
Important: the estimate is based on word count only. Final price is set once we see the actual document, because some documents (handwriting, complex tables, embedded images) need extra time. We post the real per-word rate on every quote — you never see a surprise charge.
What is included in the per-word rate: signed Certificate of Accuracy, mirror formatting, second-linguist QA review, PDF delivery, free corrections for our errors within 30 days. Notarization, apostille coordination, and certified hardcopies are the only add-ons, always quoted upfront.
