Since 2011, we've been fine tuning our approach to providing translation services and servicing some of Canberra’s biggest names. Take advantage of our Australian industry experience and world-class technology.
For over 10 years, we've been helping our clients by delivering a premium quality end product to assist in enhancing multicultural communication and social cohesion in Canberra, and Australia. Check out some of the work we've done in this space.
The National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) has been a valued client of Ethnolink for many years and we have worked on a number of projects to ensure that the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is accessible for culturally and linguistically diverse Australians. On this occasion, Ethnolink was engaged to help NDIS communicate with LGBTIQA+ participants and communities — here's our solution.
We were proud to work with the Attorney-General's Department to assist the important cause of encouraging culturally and linguistically diverse Australians to share their stories with the Disability Royal Commission. Take a look at the videos we created.
Jean Hailes for Women's Health is a national not-for-profit organisation dedicated to improving women's health. Ethnolink was approached to help Jean Hailes communicate with culturally and linguistically diverse women — here's what we delivered.
Whilst we have been working in Canberra and services local clients for a decade, we don’t have a physical office for you to visit. Thanks to the power of technology, our team off project managers and translators can work remotely and don’t need to receive physical copies of your documents to translate them.
If you do require physical versions of your NAATI certified translations, our translators will post them to you.
Yes, they are. We only work with translators who are native in the language they translate into, and who are highly experienced and NAATI certified.
You can send us your documents in whatever format you have - a PDF, Word file, scan, or a photo. As long as the text is readable and clear, our professional translators can translate it for you. But before that happens, our Translation Strategists will analyse them and provide you with a personalised quote. If you have any specific requirements, let us know and we will do our absolute best to accomodate.
It depends! Some languages expand and some contract when they are translated from English. The same script in French for example, is up to 20 percent longer than in English. So you can expect a 60-second English commercial to be 72 seconds long in the French language. Our voice-over specialists will be able to advise and guide you on this, so that the end product still matches your expectations.
Depending on the length of your document, it will take 2-3 business days to receive your NAATI certified translation. If you need a hard copy, we can organise express or regular postage to you - just let us know.
The top 5 languages spoken in Canberra (besides English) are Mandarin, Vietnamese, Cantonese, Hindi and Spanish, however, it's not always enough to translate materials for the most widely spoken languages.
There are other factors to consider such as the age group you are trying to target, their literacy levels and their English competency.
Talk to our Translation Strategy team to see what languages will work best for your campaign and help you reach and help your target audience.
Whether you require a birth certificate, driver's license, marriage certificate, death certificate, diploma, degree or any other personal document to be translated into English by a NAATI accredited translator, our Canberra translation service can assist you.
Upon your request, we’ll also send you a certified hard copy by Australian post (additional postage and handling fee applies). Your document will come with the translators NAATI stamp and signature and this document can then be used to submit to various Government departments.
There are a number of factors that determine price including language, deadline, and complexity. As a general guide, a 1-page standard document such as a birth certificate, marriage certificate or driver’s licence is only $69 per page.
For non-standard, multi-page projects, pricing is based on a ‘per 100 words’ basis. Simply provide us with a copy of your documents for assessment so we can provide you with a quote to get the translation work started.
All of our Canberra translations are conducted by NAATI accredited professional translators so you are assured of the quality of the work produced.
