Why Professional Translation Services are Crucial

Professional translation services like we offer at Global LTS provide reliable, culturally sensitive, and high-quality translations, ensuring effective communication in global markets.

Accuracy and Cultural Relevance

Professional native Brazilian Portuguese translators, who are native speakers, ensure linguistic accuracy and authenticity. Their familiarity with the Portuguese language nuances, idioms, and colloquialisms guarantees that translations resonate with the Brazilian target audience.

Beyond literal translation, these professionals understand cultural contexts and sensitivities. This ensures that the content is culturally appropriate, avoiding potential misunderstandings or offenses that could impact business relationships and brand perception.

Range of Services Offered

Differentiating between certified and standard translations, these services cater to various needs. Certified translations, often required for legal or official documents, ensure compliance and legal validity. 

Standard translations, on the other hand, are more suited for business or personal use where certification is not mandatory.

Professional services often offer specialised translations, including legal, financial, medical, and technical documents. 

This specialisation ensures high-quality, accurate translations by experts familiar with specific industry terminologies and practices. This aspect is crucial for maintaining consistency, brand cohesion, and compliance with industry-specific regulations.

Understanding Translation Types

Both certified and standard translations have their unique applications, with certified translations being more formal and legally binding, while standard translations are more versatile for general business and personal use.

Certified Translation

Certified translations involve a translation accompanied by a signed statement from the translator or translation agency. These translations are typically required by governmental, legal, financial, regulatory, and academic institutions. 

They include a translator’s affirmation of accuracy and proficiency and a certifier’s details, such as name, signature, date, and address. Common uses include translating official documents like birth certificates, academic transcripts, and immigration papers.

This type of translation demands strict adherence to accuracy, including translating all visible content from the source document. 

The translation is typically not editable and must be accompanied by a certification statement detailing the translator’s qualifications or agency’s contact details. 

In certain cases, translations must be performed by professionals affiliated with specific organizations, like the ITI or the Association of Translation Companies, and include a stamp or signature from a registered linguist or agency representative.

Standard Translation

Standard translations are used for everyday content where no certificate of translation is required. These are more flexible compared to certified translations.

The translations are delivered in an editable form and are commonly used for materials like business documents, employee manuals, website content, and white papers.

Unlike certified translations, standard translations do not require a certification statement or attestation of accuracy. They are more suited for general content that does not require legal or official recognition.

Industry-Specific Translation Expertise

The translation of industry-specific documents like legal, financial, and medical requires not only language proficiency but also an in-depth understanding of the respective fields to ensure accuracy, compliance, and legal validity, especially in the context of Brazilian Portuguese translations.

Legal Translation

  • Importance of Specialised Legal Terminology: Legal documents such as contracts, court documents, and legal correspondence require precise translation. The use of specialised legal terminology and an understanding of legal systems is crucial. Incorrect translations can lead to legal ramifications or misinterpretations in legal proceedings.
  • Certification Requirements: Many legal documents need certified or sworn translation by a licensed professional to be legally valid in Brazil, highlighting the need for specialised legal translation services.

Financial Translation Services

  • Specifics of Financial Document Translation: Translating financial documents like reports, statements, and business correspondence demands a thorough understanding of financial terminology and practices. Precision in translation is essential to maintain the integrity of the financial data and comply with international financial regulations.
  • Legal Validity: Financial documents often require certified translations to ensure compliance and acceptance in legal and financial settings, especially in international transactions or business expansions.

Medical Translation

  • Necessity of Precision in Medical Translations: Medical translations, including patient records, clinical studies, and pharmaceutical documentation, require absolute accuracy. Misinterpretations in medical documents can have serious consequences, emphasising the need for expert translators familiar with medical terminology and practices.
  • Certified Translation for Legal Validity: Given the sensitive nature of medical documents, certified translations are often necessary to ensure compliance with healthcare regulations and to maintain the confidentiality and accuracy of patient information.

The Translation Process

This detailed process, undertaken by professional translation services, ensures that the final product is not only linguistically accurate but also culturally appropriate and aligned with the client’s needs.

How Professional Translation Works

  • Initial Analysis and Preparation: The process begins with an analysis of the source material to understand its context, purpose, and technical requirements. This stage often involves preparing the document for translation, such as extracting text from non-editable formats.
  • Translation by Qualified Linguists: The core of the process is the translation of the document by professional linguists. They are not only proficient in both the source and target languages but also have expertise in the specific subject matter of the Portuguese document translation.
  • Use of Translation Tools: Professional translators often utilise translation memory tools and glossaries to ensure consistency in terminology, especially for large or ongoing projects.

Quality Assurance Measures

  • Editing and Proofreading: After translation, the document undergoes editing and proofreading. This stage involves checking for accuracy, language fluency, and consistency and making necessary adjustments.
  • Quality Checks for Accuracy and Consistency: Quality assurance checks are conducted to ensure the translation meets the required standards. These checks include reviewing the translation for any missed content, mistranslations, or context-related errors.
  • Final Review and Delivery: The last step involves a final review of the translated document, ensuring it aligns with the original’s tone, style, and intent. The completed translation is then delivered to the client in the required format.
