Send the language list your program works to. The quote prices each one, with its own delivery date.
Services
What we produce.
Document translation
Notices, forms, applications, outreach materials, and public-facing web copy, translated, reviewed, and returned in the layout you sent.
Certified translation
A signed, dated certificate of accuracy accompanying each delivery, in the form agencies and courts expect for the record.
Review of existing translations
Independent review of translations you already hold (including machine output), with a written finding and, where warranted, certification.
Formatting and layout
We format for text expansion, right-to-left scripts, and line breaking in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, so the translated file prints and posts like the source.
Certification
Every delivery is signed.
A certificate of accuracy comes with each document, in the form agencies and courts expect. It costs nothing extra, and we keep a copy for reissue years later.
Civic Translation

How it works
The same process on every job.
Every job is reviewed by a qualified human linguist. The certificate is the record.
Intake and quote
Send the file. We return scope, price, and a delivery date same business day.
Translation
Prepared against your existing terminology, and against the agency glossaries where they apply.
Human review
A qualified linguist in the language pair reviews the full text against the source. Included on every job, at every turnaround tier.
Delivery and certificate
Returned in your source format, with a signed and dated certificate of accuracy.
For public agencies
Easy to buy from.
Civic Translation is set up for how agencies actually purchase: small dollar values, short timelines, and a paper trail that survives an audit.
Written quotes
Returned same business day, itemized by language and document.
No minimum
A one-page notice is a job we will take.
Purchase orders and invoices
A completed W-9 on request. Standard net terms, or your department's where they differ.
Confidentiality
Draft and pre-decisional documents handled as confidential by default.
Send us a document.
Attach the file, tell us the languages and the date you need it, and you will have a written quote back same business day.
