Types of Translation

There are 2 types of translation:

1. Full Translation – everything is translated and specified including all images, deletions, or any amendments. All information is transferred from the source document to the translated document regardless of its relevance to the purpose of translation. There is no limitation of use as full translation is always accepted. However, prices are typically higher than extract translation.

2. Extract Translation – only relevant and necessary information is translated and re-arranged into a new format making it much easier to read. Details of the document and details of the bearer of the document are typically separated. Each data often has a heading to explain what it is. This type of translation is very popular and accepted by most organisations in Australia. Extract translation makes documents much easier to read. We can choose to emphasise on information that will be required. Prices are also cheaper than full translation.
