Frequently Asked Questions

Whatever the document, we ensure technical accuracy and compliance.
ISO 17100 sets the standard for translation services: it ensures translator qualifications, project management, and quality assurance meet internationally recognized benchmarks. For pharmaceuticals, where errors can have serious legal, safety, or regulatory consequences, working with ISO 17100-certified providers helps protect your product, patients, and reputation.
We combine specialized translators with domain experience (pharma, biotech, regulatory) plus rigorous workflows. We are ISO 17100 certified, HIPAA compliant, and follow relevant local and international regulations (e.g. GDPR). Each translation is reviewed, adapted to local regulatory requirements, and handled with strict confidentiality to meet all safety and compliance demands.
All our translators are native speakers with a minimum of five years’ experience and subject-matter expertise in pharmaceutical fields. We also use translators accredited by leading industry-bodies to ensure both linguistic skill and technical domain knowledge.
Yes. We understand that regulatory submissions, market entry deadlines, or clinical trial timelines often can’t wait. We have efficient project management and scalable resources so we can accommodate urgent requests without sacrificing accuracy, compliance, or quality.
We translate into over 200 languages and tailor each translation to target markets. Localizing means adapting content not just in language, but in regulatory language, cultural nuance, labeling requirements, and any legal or safety standards required in each region.
Several factors affect pricing: number of target languages, document type (e.g. protocol vs packaging vs PROs), level of technical or regulatory complexity, whether localization is needed, volume, and how urgent the project is. Once we know these details, we provide a customized, transparent quote.
We take confidentiality seriously: all documents are handled under strict protocols, we are HIPAA compliant, ISO certified, and we follow data privacy regulations like GDPR. Your intellectual property, patient data, and regulatory materials are always treated securely.
As early as possible. Including translation/localization planning during development (e.g. when writing protocols, preparing labels, drafting packaging) means glossaries, regulatory considerations, and language/local market requirements can be integrated early. This minimizes delays, reduces risk, and ensures smoother regulatory submissions.
We build and maintain glossaries and termbases, employ style guides specific to your project or product, and use subject-matter expert review. That means technical terms, regulatory terminology, safety-related wording are used consistently across all your translated materials, in all target languages.
