ISO 17100 Certified Translation Services: How the Standard Safeguards Your Business
In global business, accuracy and consistency in every word are critical—especially when technical, legal, or regulatory documents are in play. Companies rely on ISO 17100 certified translation services not just for linguistic quality, but for a process-driven guarantee that their texts retain the meaning, professionalism, and compliance they require. This internationally recognized standard goes far beyond a quality seal—it is a warranty for your company’s communications.
Why ISO 17100 Certified Translation Services Matter
When a business chooses to translate its confidential reports, regulatory filings, or technical manuals, it is entrusting not only the message but also its reputation and legal responsibility to a translation partner. Ordinary translation is no longer enough—ISO 17100 certified translation services bring structured workflows, proven expertise, and risk management to every project.
ISO 17100 is an international standard that sets rigorous requirements for processes, resources, and management in translation. It ensures that every step—from text receipt to final delivery—is conducted under defined, auditable procedures, so you can be confident of both performance and accountability.
What Does ISO 17100 Require?
ISO 17100 certified translation services demand much more than fluent language skills. They involve:
-
Qualified Translators
Only translators who hold a university degree in translation, a degree plus two years of translation experience, or five years of proven professional translation are approved. This ensures your content is managed by specialists—not just generalists. -
Mandatory Revision
Every translation must be reviewed by an independent professional, matching the translator’s qualifications. This double-check guarantees accuracy, consistency, and compliance with industry standards. -
Professional Project Management
Certified project managers oversee every job, ensuring all client specifications, deadlines, and technical requirements are strictly met. -
Structured Workflow
From initial quotation to final delivery, every project follows clear, documented stages:-
Analysis and preparation
