Translation technology
Translation memory
Our translation memory software can recognise repeated and previously translated texts. This increases the consistency of the translation and prevents extra costs. Previously translated texts are saved in the translation memory. Each client has their own translation memory.
Terminology list
If a specific translation or tone of voice is requested, this can be stored in the terminology list. These translations will then be suggested to the translator during the translation process. This improves the consistency of the translation and allows for special requests to be accommodated.
Quality control
In addition to a second check by a human translator, we apply an automatic quality control check. This includes stylistic improvements as well as a spell check and overall translation review. This aids the translator and revisor to better find mistakes in the texts as well as to improve the consistency of the translation.
Our procedure for a Perfect translation
We receive the text to be translated and any special requests regarding your translation
This can be easily done via our online quote form, email or WeTransfer. Let us know exactly what your specific wishes are. This way, we can get off to a good start.
We diligently review your request
This enables us to discover the story behind the words. We can decipher what must be included in order to properly express the translated message. We then check the text(s) to see if it is appropriate to use a translation memory.
We select the most suitable native speaker translator
The correct translator is extremely important in order to have a good end product. We consider the translator’s experience within your industry as well as the intended audience. All of our translators meet the ISO 17100 standards.
You receive a detailed quote
Based on the above-mentioned information, you will receive a quote, which includes all of the demands you have given.
We will begin the translation process after you have accepted the quote
Once the quote has been accepted, we will begin the translation process and ensure that all of the agreed deadlines will be met. This will take a huge weight off of your shoulders!
The revisor edits the translation and we deliver the translation to you
We also take into account the industry and audience of the translation when choosing a revisor. The revisor thoroughly edits the translation and we deliver the translation electronically. You will receive a notification of this via email.
You are also covered by our quality assurance after the translation has been delivered
We operate with quality assurance. Should any questions regarding the delivered translation arise (within 30 days), we will gladly address these and make adjustments if necessary.

Each year, we translate for more than 2,000 diverse organisations and our texts are read in a variety of industries. Our team of in-house translators and language specialists find the correct tone and terminology in order to help you reach your audience.

Frequently asked questions for Translation Agency Perfect
We calculate the price by multiplying the word count by the rate per word. This then becomes the base translation price.
If you would like us to perform a full quality check on the translation, we will charge a small additional fee. If your translation doesn't have a Western European language in the language pair, the price may go up. Finally, we charge an additional fee if you have an urgent translation.
We calculate the base price by multiplying the word count by the rate per word. The price of a Blog Page translation is ultimately dependant on a number of factors. Translation Agency Perfect offers three translation options in different price classes: Economy, Excellent and Express. These options each offer a different price per word and have various advantages, including delivery time and type of revision. This is precisely why the price of a Blog Page translation differs per assignment.

We always determine the delivery time for a translation in mutual consultation. A good rule of thumb is one business day for start-up, plus one business day for every 1,500 to 2,000 words. We can generally deliver urgent translations of up to 2,000 words within one business day. Your project manager would be happy to advise you when it comes to meeting certain deadlines.
An urgent translation is a job that needs to be finished on the same day, or a job for which we need to translate more than 2,000 words per business day in order to meet the desired deadline.
We offer three translation options: Economy, Excellent and Express.
Economy:
The text will be translated by a professional, native speaker translator who is in compliance with the ISO standards. After the translation, the text will be partly reviewed. This ensures a competitive rate, but the text will not be completely reviewed. For this reason, ISO 17100 is not applicable. It is possible to work with a terminology list and/or translation memory.
Our advice is to choose this translation option if you have a simple text to be translated that does not have any legal merit or is not intended to be published. Texts which are best suited for this option include documents for use within a (corporate) organisation, or a simple text such as a recipe.
Excellent:
The text will be translated by a professional, native speaker translator who is in compliance with the ISO standards. After the text has been translated, it will be thoroughly revised by an experienced revisor. This option is more expensive, but the text will be completely reviewed. In this case, the ISO 17100 standard is applicable. It is possible to work with a terminology list and/or translation memory.
Our advice is to choose this translation option in order to avoid having an inadequate translation. Texts best suited for this option include medical, legal or technical documents and texts that are intended to be published.
Express:
The text will be translated by a professional, native speaker translator who is in compliance with the ISO standards. We define an urgent translation, sometimes called a rush job, as a translation that requires same day completion or if more than 2,000 words need to be translated per business day. Speed is of the essence, but not at the expense of quality.
Together with you, we will discuss the quickest possible deadline.

Yes. Our general terms and conditions have the following clause regarding confidentiality:
Article 4 – Execution of assignments and confidentiality
4.1 The translation agency is obliged to execute the assignment to the best of its knowledge and ability and with the necessary expertise, taking into account the purpose of the text(s) to be translated or edited by the translation agency, as specified by the client.
The translation agency will treat the information made available by the client confidentially insofar as this is possible in connection with the execution of the assignment. The translation agency will oblige its employees to observe confidentiality. However, the translation agency is not liable for violation of the confidentiality obligation by these employees if the translation agency can demonstrate that it was unable to prevent this violation.
Unless expressly agreed otherwise, the translation agency has the right to have an assignment (partly) performed by third parties, without prejudice to the translation agency's responsibility for the confidential treatment and proper execution of the assignment. The translation agency will oblige said third parties to observe confidentiality. However, the translation agency is not liable for breaches of the duty of confidentiality by these third parties if the translation agency can demonstrate that it was unable to prevent this violation.
The client is obliged, if possible, to provide a substantive explanation of the text to be translated and, if available, to provide the translation agency with relevant documentation and terminology. The sending of said information is always at the expense and risk of the client.
Our translators prefer working with Microsoft Word files. However, this doesn't mean you are restricted to just this file type. For example, if you have a PDF file, we can most likely convert it to a translatable format. Other file formats we can work with include: Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint, XML and any plain text files. Do you have a different file type? Please contact one of our project managers.
Files must be provided digitally. We assess the provided documents on complexity and will perform a word count before we draw up a quote. We can make some exceptions depending on the situation. Legal documents and documents that require a sworn translation may be provided by registered post due to their confidential nature.
Translation Agency Perfect can translate a variety of texts. You’ve come to the right place if you need a manual, general terms and conditions or a brochure translated. We also translate blogs, online shops, websites and everything in between.

Websites or online stores are some of the most common translation assignments. The fastest way to get a quote for your translation is providing your texts in a workable file format. Microsoft Word or Excel, for example. If this isn't possible, we may be able to manually count the words on your website, but this takes up a lot of time.
If the website is small and mostly consists of informational texts, we can extract the texts based on the URL provided and prepare them for translation. We will paste the extracted texts into a Microsoft Word document, which we will include for approval with the quote. We will deliver the translation in Microsoft Word as well.
You can opt to provide the texts in a translation or export file as well. Some of the common file formats include CSV, XLIFF, XML or PO. These are file types we can process and we recommend that you use these file types if your web environment features a lot of product information or many different unique webpages. We will deliver the translation in the same format, allowing you to use an import feature to directly process the translation. This is the most effective way to translate a website.
We also have experience in working within CMSs or software localisation systems, so this is definitely an option for translating your website. Though we may not be familiar with every system out there, there are virtually no limits to what we can accomplish with a detailed brief and close collaboration.
Please contact our project managers if you would like more in-depth advice regarding website translations. We would be happy to help!
We have our own in-house translators for German, English and French. In addition, we have a global network of professional and reliable translators we can employ for your desired language pair.
Here you will find a comprehensive list of available languages.
A certified translation has to meet several strict requirements. For example, the text must be translated by an experienced translator and checked by a second, independent reviewer. This check safeguards the quality of our translations. A certified translation will not feature a declaration, signature or stamp.
A sworn translation is a translation that is certified by a translator who has been sworn in by a court for a specific language pair (on the basis of training and experience). The translator certifies the translation by physically attaching it to the original document, declaring that the translation is correct and complete in their estimation, and adding their signature and stamp.
A sworn translation is virtually only required for legal reasons. When in doubt, we recommend that you verify with whatever party requesting a sworn translation that such a translation is absolutely necessary. Sometimes a translation agency's stamp will suffice. There are many excellent translators who have decided not to be sworn in. It must be said, though, that a translator is sworn in based on demonstrable proficiency and training.
Yes, we provide sworn translations for a variety of companies on a regular basis. We do not have sworn translators for every language pair. Whether we can provide a sworn translation depends on translator availability.
We offer what we call a quantity discount. As the word count increases, the rate per word will go down accordingly. Our translation prices are based on a rate per word. This rate depends on the following points.
- The word count
- Language pair
- Nature of the text
- Quality check
If you are looking for a fixed translation partner, Translation Agency Perfect can make fixed price agreements. Based on your expectations and desires, we can provide you with a fitting offer. Any agreements made apply to every single translation.
A translation memory is a tool that supports translators in translating sentences or segments that they already translated previously. The translator always remains in control. A machine translation is a fully automated translation (e.g. Google Translate). We strongly advise against using a machine translation.
Yes, we can use a specific writing style. We would like to receive some specific information about the translation beforehand, which will allow us to use the desired style instead of having to change it after the fact.
Yes, you can send along a list of terminology for your translation. In fact, we advise our clients to do this as much as possible. This is especially important if you have a lot of translation work to be done, since it allows us to keep your translations consistent.
Our client portal offers the following functionalities:
- You can request a new quote
- An overview of completed translations
- An overview of the most recently requested quotes
- An overview of your invoices
- You can change your invoice settings
- You can change your (contact) information
Translation Agency Perfect will treat the information made available by the client confidentially insofar as this is possible in connection with the execution of the assignment.

You should choose Translation Agency Perfect if you want excellent translations at competitive rates. We speak the language of your target audience and offer a quality guarantee. Additionally, we offer payment in arrears by invoice.
Experienced in-house translators and revisors
Translation Agency Perfect primarily employs experienced (in-house) translators and revisors. Our translators and employees are highly trained and have a wealth of experience in translation and language in general. If we are unable to do a translation in house, we have a network of hundreds of experienced external translators we can turn to.
External translators
Naturally, not all of our translators (full time or part time) work in house. Many (freelance) translators work from home and may operate from anywhere in the world. This isn't a problem as our system allows us to maintain direct contact with our (external) translators, which allows us to communicate quickly despite any physical distance between us. We've had a solid working relationship with most of our freelance translators for many years.

The ISO-9001 standard aims to continuously increase customer satisfaction, while the aim of the ISO-17100 standard is to guarantee the quality of the blog. The latter standard also ensures that the translated text is revised.
A translation memory will be accumulated. This means that for future assignments, the previously translated words in your assignment will be deducted from the total cost. We will also look for repeated segments (chunks of text) in the source text. This is cost-effective and ensures consistency, which results in a quality translation.
A translation memory is built up. This means that in similar follow-up tasks, the previously translated words are deducted. We also look at any repeated segments in the source text itself. This is attractive in terms of cost and quality. By reusing words and phrases that have already been translated, translations are translated consistently.

We accept export files such as .csv, .xls, .xlsx (Excel), .doc, .docx (Word), .json and .po.
If the website is smaller, then this is possible. Unfortunately, we cannot give a quote based on a URL for large websites or online shops. Please send us an export file of the website. If it concerns a WordPress website with the word counter plug-in installed, we can assess the number of words in the website and translate directly in it. We can also give you a quote based on this. This is standard practice for us. It allows us to be absolutely sure of the correct number of words to be translated in the source text. That way, any misunderstandings regarding work and expenses are prevented.
We can transfer the codes since we work with a translation memory. The translation will be delivered in the same format, including codes, as it was submitted. Of course, there are always exceptions to this.
You can submit the text to be translated for a website or online shop via an editable file, such as .docx or .xlsx. Texts can also be submitted in a translation or export file (.CSV, .XLIFF, .XML or .PO). We can also translate texts directly in your CMS.
The main difference between a human translation and a machine translation is that of localisation. People take this into account, but machines don’t. Human translations are always flawless, while a machine translation often contains errors.
Yes. We can do this in WordPress, Phrase or any other suitable website. In order to do this, we will need access to your website. It’s possible that we will have to install one or more plug-ins in order to be able to translate directly in the CMS.
Yes, it is possible to use a translation memory. Using a translation memory allows us to recognise previously translated texts, which makes translation faster. This also results in the translation of a website or online shop being less expensive. Each client amasses their own translation memory.
We do offer SEO translations, but we will need to receive a list of the desired keywords from you. Our translators do not independently research keywords. We can apply your list of keywords to the translation memory so that the correct keywords are used.
