In the competitive world of international business, precision is paramount.

We have decades of experience providing top-tier Japanese business translation services globally. We recognize the profound impact that subpar translation can have on companies’ profitability.

Unpacking the Cost of Poor Quality Translation

Did you know that a staggering 80% of global businesses face revenue losses due to inadequate translation?

These losses typically manifest in three significant ways: missed business opportunities, expenses incurred from translation-related litigation, and fines for non-compliance. It goes without saying that these are pitfalls you simply can’t afford in an ultra-competitive business environment.

Realizing the Significance Through a Case Study

Consider this eye-opening case study:

A company with an annual revenue of $250 million discovered it was hemorrhaging...

When it comes to translating your Japanese documents to English, you’ll encounter two terms: “certified translation” and “notarized translation.”

Let’s break down the distinction between these, so you can make the right choice for your specific needs.

Assurance by Experts

Certified translation means that a reputable translation company has authenticated the accuracy of the translated document. This authentication is signified by the Statement of Certification, bearing the official company stamp or the signature of a representative. Conversely, a notarized translation involves a Notary Public verifying the authenticity of the translated documents.

A key point to remember:

Notary Publics don’t assess the accuracy of the translation itself; they focus solely on the authenticity of the documents.

Certified and Notarized Translation

Now, do you need notarization for your certified...

Content, whether on the web or in print, is in a constant state of flux.

Therefore, any translation solution worth its salt must not only address the initial translation but also have a robust strategy to keep translated content up-to-date and aligned with the ever-changing landscape.

Keeping Translated Content Relevant

Let’s delve into the critical question that arises in the world of translation crowdsourcing.

Dynamic Content Updates
Crowdsourced translation initiatives often aim to conquer the vast expanse of the internet with translated content. While this ambition is commendable, it only covers half of what’s truly needed for a comprehensive translation solution. So, what’s the other half? The key lies in a strategy for consistently updating translated content to reflect the dynamism of the digital realm.

Why Content Updates Matter
The virtual world is the real world, on...

The article below highlights a concerning trend: machine translation vendors promoting their products despite astronomical error rates

One particular example showcases an astonishing 20-25% error rate in translation accuracy. As you can imagine, such an alarming rate is unacceptable in any field, let alone translation, where the consequences of errors can be catastrophic. Literally. Like life ‘n limb.

Unacceptable Error Rates in Machine Translation

It’s disheartening to see tech-savvy journalists contribute to the marketing hype surrounding machine translation, without fully acknowledging the risks and limitations involved. Sloppy reporting can inadvertently promote the use of machine translation, perpetuating the cycle of subpar results.

Machine translation may have its place in certain contexts, such as quick and informal translations. However, when it comes to critical...

When it comes to translations, understanding the different types can be a bit overwhelming.

If you’re looking for certified Japanese translation, it’s essential to know what it is and when you might need it.

What Is a Certified Japanese Translation?

A certified Japanese translation is one type of official translation.

TIP

Official Translation comes in 4 flavors: Certified Translation, Sworn Translation, Notarized Translation and Apostilled Translation

Certified translation is accompanied with a Statement of Certification (also known as a “Certificate of Accuracy”), which attests to the accuracy of the translation. This certification is provided by a professional translation company, ensuring that the translation is trustworthy and accurate.

Even if you’re working with a freelance translator, a Statement of Certification is still necessary. It’s the document that makes your...
