French Translation Services UK — English to French & French to English

We can help with your French translation needs – get in touch

We provide professional French translation services for businesses and individuals across the UK and internationally. Our team of native French translators handles everything from legal documents and technical manuals to certified translations for immigration, marketing localisation, and DTP typesetting in French.

French is an official language in 29 countries with approximately 275 million speakers worldwide — spanning Europe, Africa, North America, and the Caribbean. Getting the right variant for the right audience matters as much as the translation itself.

We’ve worked with UK businesses including Airborne Systems on a 100,000-word French-to-English technical and legal translation project for a military parachute contract bid, and Lite Ltd. on a French promotional brochure translation with full InDesign typesetting. Every project is delivered with a Certificate of Accuracy.

French Variants We Cover

French is not uniform across the 29 countries where it is spoken. Standard French (Parisian French) is the baseline for most formal and business translation, but significant regional variation exists — and for consumer-facing or locally targeted content, using the right variant makes a real difference to how the content lands.

We translate across all major French variants:

• Standard French (Parisian French) — formal documents, legal texts, business correspondence, and pan-European content
• Canadian French (Quebec French) — distinct vocabulary, spelling conventions, and regulatory requirements for the Canadian market; Quebec has specific language law requirements under Bill 101
• Belgian French — used in Belgium alongside Dutch and German; differs from Standard French in vocabulary and some administrative terminology
• Swiss French — spoken in the Romandy region; uses different number conventions (septante, huitante, nonante) and some distinct vocabulary
• African French — French is the official or co-official language in over 20 African countries; vocabulary and register vary by country and context
