Benefit from Birmingham translation services conducted by qualified interpreters with genuine qualifications and professional translation services experience – in fields ranging from molecular biology and applied physics to sports broadcasting and journalism. Our highly experienced subject experts have a minimum of five years’ experience working in your area. What’s more, we’re able to supply our local translators to deliver work that is sensitive to local culture and completed to your timeframe. Whether you’re working on a PR launch in Malaysia or a government-funding application in the Côte d’Ivoire, our translators guarantee quick turnaround times and impeccable ‘on-the-ground’ mother tongue knowledge. We offer standard and fast-track certified translation services and can co-ordinate print and web launch deadlines to your local time zone. Also, because we work locally and understand the politics and history of your target territory, we can ensure that your translation project is free from tiny errors in phrasing or grammar that can alter meaning or accidentally give offence.
Make sure your print and digital words stand out for the right reasons. Our Birmingham translations services are augmented by typesetting and DTP services, which make sure your communications and publications are legible and attractive in print and digital formats. We accept practically all file formats and are able to work with vertical, horizontal, and right-to-left systems of writing as well as pictorial languages and ideographic or logogrammatic languages. Our typesetters have plenty of experience in laying out publications ranging from comics and popular magazines to dissertations, government reports, and technical manuals. In addition, our translation services are supported by the latest translation memory software, which stores frequently used and industry-specific words and phrase in a personalised word bank. We only charge for new translations and not for translating the words and phrases in your word bank: meaning you only ever pay for fresh content to be translated.
We have offices across the UK and Europe.

Quick turnaround and fantastic service
I want to thank Mattia and his team for being so brilliant. I needed some documents translated from English into French quickly, and they was able to meet the deadline. There were quite a few documents and required a professional level of translation with certification. At all times, Mattia was helpful, courteous and responsive. I definitely recommend this company.

All our translation services in Birmingham are backed by extensive accreditations and qualifications, as a translation agency with an accomplished management team who offer language support and full project assistance to ensure your documents, materials, digital content, or other interpreting services are of the highest quality.
Every Birmingham translation project is different, and our project managers begin by consulting with our clients to understand your aims, ensuring we offer translation services aligned with your anticipated outcomes.

Other projects based on smaller-scale translation may incorporate one target language but with a high level of specificity around the way your translation is laid out, retaining important syntax or referencing to ensure translated content is valid, accessible and compliant.
Our network of professional translators provides personal support to all our valued customers, whether you need one document translated or have a multi-faceted translation project to help your Birmingham organisation communicate with new demographics, stakeholders or overseas collaborators.
Absolute Translations has been providing Birmingham translation services, across our wide array of specialisms, for over 20 years.
