A certified translation is a translation accompanied by a signed Certificate of Accuracy for official use. ISO 17100 and ISO 18587 certification means that a translation provider's processes meet the requirements of internationally recognized standards. ISO certification applies to the processes used to provide translation services, not to the certification of an individual translated document.

ISO 18587 is the international standard for the human post-editing of machine-translated content. It defines requirements for the qualifications of post-editors and for the review and correction of machine-generated translations. Qualified professional linguists review the translation for accuracy, completeness, terminology, grammar, style, and meaning, combining the efficiency of machine translation with structured human oversight. Apex Translations is ISO 18587 certified, enabling us to provide AI-assisted [...]

For clients, this means translations are produced through a documented, independently audited process designed to support accuracy, consistency, and accountability. Apex Translations is ISO 17100 certified, so qualifying projects are managed according to internationally recognized translation quality [...]

Our workflows follow ISO 17100 and ISO 18587 standards where applicable, and we use MQM (Multidimensional Quality Metrics) to evaluate translation quality using objective criteria. For ongoing work, we maintain translation memories, glossaries, and style guides to keep your terminology, messaging, and brand [...]

The cost of professional translation depends on several factors, including the language combination, word count or project volume, selected service package, file type and complexity, formatting requirements, and turnaround time. We provide a customized quote before your project begins, so you know the cost upfront. When applicable, translation memory, repetitive content, volume, and ongoing-program discounts can help reduce costs while maintaining consistency across your projects.
