Transparent prices & fair conditions
Good quality doesn’t come cheap – but it doesn’t have to be unaffordable. At MTS, we use an open and transparent pricing model with no hidden costs. Whether you need a complex specialised translation, a certified document or an interpreter for your negotiations, we calculate your offer individually and fairly.
Interpreter services
Guaranteed clear communication in all your discussions
Interpreting enables direct and culturally appropriate communication. Our experienced interpreters will accompany you confidently during business negotiations, official appointments, notary appointments, trade fairs or medical consultations.
How we calculate:
Hourly basis: Interpreting services are generally charged by the hour.
Billing cycle: The first hour or part thereof will be charged in full, and after this invoicing will be based on agreement.
Travelling expenses: Call-out fees and other travel expenses are shown separately and transparently.
Price factors: The hourly rate varies depending on the language combination, the type of service (consecutive, simultaneous or liaison interpreting) and the complexity of the specialised field.
Translator services
Precise texts from a native speaker
We translate your texts into the target language with technical accuracy and stylistic fidelity. We work exclusively with qualified native speakers and state-certified and sworn translators.
How we calculate:
Fixed price guarantee: We usually calculate translations at a fixed price or as a lump sum. This means you know exactly what you will be charged in advance.
Calculation basis: The price depends on the language combination, subject area, text volume and complexity.
Documents: We offer fixed flat rates for standard documents (e.g. certificates, testimonials) on request.
Important note: The minimum order value for translations is €50.00 (net).
