Pricing


As a rule, invoicing is based on standard lines or - alternatively on agreement - on the word count, or standard pages. Tables, figures etc. are billed per hour of work. Please note that all fees specified are average fees and may vary depending on the urgency of delivery and on the degree of difficulty of the text to be translated.

The following pricing applies in general:

€ 0.15 per word

(approx. 7 characters per word / 7 words per standard line)
If the translation is significantly more difficult than average, particularly due to complicated technical terms or poor readability, or if high layout efforts are necessary, the fee may increase by 25% and - in the case of extraordinarily difficult texts - by up to 100%. The character count is based on the text of the target language.

€ 1.00 per line

(55 characters per standard line including spaces)
If the translation is significantly more difficult than average, particularly due to complicated technical terms or poor readability, or if high layout efforts are necessary, the fee may increase to € 1.25 and - in the case of extraordinarily difficult texts - to € 2.00. The character count per standard line is based on the text of the target language.

€ 30.00 per standard page

(30 standard lines with 55 characters each, including spaces).
If the translation is significantly more difficult than average, particularly due to complicated technical terms or poor readability, or if high layout efforts are necessary, the fee may increase to € 37.50 and - in the case of extraordinarily difficult texts - to € 60.00. The character count per standard page is based on the text of the target language.

€ 40.00 per hour

The expenditure of time billed takes into account the time required for the actual translation, as well as any required layout and research.

Please note:

  • I will gladly prepare an individual quote for you.
    • Cost estimates with a time expenditure of less than 0.5 hours will be provided free of charge.
    • If, for more elaborate texts/documents, the time expenditure for a cost estimate for the translation exceeds 0.5 hours, this expenditure will be charged on an hourly basis. Upon receipt of your order for the translation, this payable amount for the cost estimate will be deducted from the final invoice for the completed translation.
  • Special prices may in some cases be agreed for private customers with legal documents.
  • Special conditions may in some cases be agreed for large and/or long-term translation projects.
  • The minimum order fee is € 15.00.
  • An urgency surcharge of 25% will be charged for especially urgent translations.
  • For certifications, € 5.00 will be charged per document to be certified.

All fees quoted are net fees. The legal value-added tax in € will be added to the net total. If delivery via mail (e.g. registered mail) is requested, the postage will be charged in addition.

Invoicing is usually based on the target text and follows immediately on the completion and delivery of the translation. Payment is requested via bank transfer or - in case of customer pick-up - in cash and is due immediately.
