How to quote as a translator
Translation is priced per word, per page or per hour, and the three are not interchangeable — a certified document and a marketing brochure of the same length are different jobs. The quote should name the unit, the language pair and how many revision rounds are included.
This template opens with a per-word line, a proofreading line and a certification line. Set your rate, state the turnaround, and send an estimate that fixes the scope as well as the price.
What to include
- Language pair and direction
- Word or page count and the unit rate
- Subject matter and any specialist terminology
- Proofreading, certification or formatting, if included
- Turnaround, revision rounds and validity period
Typical terms: Valid 30 days · one revision round included
Frequently asked questions
Per word or per hour?
Per word for documents, per hour for editing, subtitling or anything where the source is messy. Quoting per word on a badly written original means doing rewriting work you were not paid for.
Should revisions be limited on the quote?
Yes. Say how many rounds are included and what counts as a revision rather than a new instruction — a client who changes the source text is commissioning a new translation, not correcting yours.
Is the translation quote template free?
Yes — no account, no watermark, unlimited downloads.
