Professional Translation Rates
Competitive per-word pricing, no hidden fees. Free quote within 24 hours for all language pairs.
We offer transparent and competitive pricing for professional translation in Canada. For standard translation, our rates range from $0.16 to $0.50 CAD per word depending on language pair, specialization and complexity. Certified translation is priced per page instead: Certified translation is $69 per 250-word page, with a minimum charge of $89 per project — that minimum is what applies to a short document. All quotes are free and provided within 24 hours.
Transparent Rates, No Surprises
Our rates are simple and clear. You know the per-word price before you commit. No hidden fees, no unexpected surcharges.
Prices vary by language pair (rarer language = higher cost), but once you request a quote, the price is guaranteed.
