FAQ

Questions people ask before they send a file.

If your question is not covered here, include it with your estimate, request a quote, or email contact@translitify.com.

How much does a certified translation cost?

The suggested starting rate is $24.95 for each billable page of up to 250 words. The estimator rounds word counts up to a whole page (ceil of words divided by 250). 24-hour rush, notarization, and hard-copy mailing are optional. You can change every default in the single pricing config file. Unusual files may still need a custom quote.

How is a page counted?

A billable page is up to 250 words. If you type a word count, the estimator uses the ceiling of that number divided by 250. If you type a page count instead, that whole-page figure is used. The live total shows the page count before you continue.

What is the difference between standard and certified translation?

Certified translation is billed per page and includes a signed certificate of accuracy. It is the usual path for official filings. Standard translation is billed per word (suggested default $0.10) and is meant for everyday or internal text, typically delivered as an editable file.

Do I need a notarized translation?

Only if the receiving organization asks for one. Notarization generally confirms the identity of the person signing the certificate; it does not, by itself, prove the translation is accurate. USCIS filings often need a certified translation, not notarization. The estimator adds notarization at $20.00 per order (suggested default) when you select it.

How quickly can I have the translation?

Standard delivery is typically 2 business days. 24-hour rush can be added in the estimator for $14.95 per billable page (suggested default). If you need something faster, use the quote form so we can say whether it is possible.

Do you guarantee USCIS acceptance?

Not on this site, as written today. A guarantee should be a policy you actually offer, with named recipients and a remedy if a translation is rejected. Until you provide that language, the homepage carries only this placeholder: [Your USCIS acceptance guarantee]. We do not invent certifications, memberships, or acceptance rates.

Can I pay on this website?

Not yet. The order page calculates a total and the checkout button opens a placeholder step. Taking real payments requires connecting WooCommerce or Stripe (or another processor) and a way to receive uploaded files. Until that is live, you can email the estimate and files to contact@translitify.com.

What should I include with a custom quote?

The files themselves, the source and target languages, where the translation will be used, your deadline, and whether you need a certified or notarized package. Instructions from the receiving organization are especially helpful.

How do you keep quality consistent?

A qualified human translator prepares the work. Names, dates, numbers, and seals are checked, and we can add a second-person edit when the text will be published or the stakes are high. If something in the agreed scope is wrong, we will correct it under [Your revision policy].

How should I send confidential documents?

Use the order or quote form once file handling is connected, or email contact@translitify.com. Avoid sending originals in the mail unless we have agreed on a hard-copy process. Additional handling notes: [Your confidentiality / data policy].
