Swisstranslate attaches great importance to respecting the confidentiality of your data. To achieve this, we use secure software to manage your data, which is hosted in Switzerland and to which only our in-house teams have access. We will delete your project once it has been delivered and sign a confidentiality agreement (NDA). Similarly, the confidentiality of your documents is respected, as all our translators scrupulously abide by a code of ethics stipulating that they are bound by professional secrecy. They reveal nothing about the content of the documents they work on, respecting the confidentiality of your information.

What’s more, Swisstranslate makes punctuality a point of honour. Once we have agreed a deadline with you in advance of the project, we undertake to meet it, delivering your complete, flawless project on time. We are also responsive throughout the project, from the request for a quote to final delivery.

Swisstranslate teams are made up exclusively of professional translators with at least 5 years’ experience.

To ensure optimum accuracy and quality for your translations, our linguists work with computer-assisted translation tools.

Swisstranslate’s linguists combine advanced technology and human expertise to produce impeccable translations.

Frequently asked questions

The delivery time for a project in Portuguese depends on its characteristics: source language, level of complexity (technical nature of the text), number of words (volume to be translated), deadlines, specific instructions, etc. That’s why we offer customised quotes that take account of your project criteria. However, once the deadline has been set, Swisstranslate undertakes to meet it and deliver your translation on time.

Every project is unique. Like the delivery deadline, the price of a Portuguese translation depends on the source language, the level of complexity (technical nature of the text), the number of words (volume to be translated), deadlines, specific instructions, etc. Contact us for a free personalised quote.

No, Swisstranslate does not offer certified translations into Portuguese. We do, however, offer notarised translations.

Portuguese has many variants, with differences in pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, accents and so on. Some words have a slight difference in spelling (the word “sport” is called desporto in Portugal and esporte in Brazil), while other words change completely (gelado in Portugal to mean “ice cream”, sorvete in Brazil). It is therefore important to specify in your request whether you require a Portuguese translation from Portugal, Angola or Brazil. Only native speakers of the Portuguese-speaking country concerned will be able to adapt their translation to your needs and your target audience. That’s why Swisstranslate carefully selects the team entrusted with your project.
