Plan your Chinese translation

Chinese translation services

Specify Simplified or Traditional Chinese when requesting a quote, together with the intended market. Choosing a writing system alone does not explain every preference for vocabulary, tone or product naming.

For a website or publication, provide reference pages for your target audience and confirm whether separate versions are needed. Keep approved brand names and terminology together in a project glossary.
