Frequently Asked Questions

How much does professional translation cost?

Professional translators charge $20-60/hr depending on language pair and specialization. General business translation costs $20-35/hr, while certified legal or medical translation runs $50-60+/hr. Per-word rates range from $0.08-0.25.

How do I verify a translator's quality?

Request a small paid test translation, check for subject-matter expertise, ask about their certification (ATA, NAATI), and review their portfolio. On GoHireHumans, review available profile trust signals, work history, and portfolio examples before hiring.

What's the difference between translation and localization?

Translation converts text from one language to another. Localization adapts content for cultural context, including idioms, formatting, currency, date formats, and cultural references.

Can I get certified translations on GoHireHumans?

Yes. Many translators on GoHireHumans are certified (ATA, NAATI, sworn translators) and can provide certified translations for immigration, legal, and official purposes.
