General Translation Package, Thai–English and Other Pairs
Short answer
This package suits documents that do not require formal certification: business material, internal records, or documents where the reader accepts a standard translation. Every job passes a second-reviewer check before delivery, and any file can be upgraded to a certified translation later if requirements change.
Not every document needs certification. Matching the level of service to what the reader actually requires saves both time and money, so the first question is always who will read the translation.
What the package includes
- Full translation preserving the structure and order of the source
- Second-reviewer check before delivery
- A shared glossary for ongoing or high-volume work
- Delivery in the file format agreed at quotation
What you need to send us
- Legible source files
- The language pair and the intended readership
- Any in-house terminology or proper nouns already in use

How the work runs

- 4Deliver — Files are delivered in the agreed format with a record of the terminology used.
Indicative starting ranges
- Thai–English translationTHB 500–1,200 per page
- Other language pairsTHB 800–2,500 per page
These are indicative starting ranges. The final figure depends on text volume, document type, language pair and the number of copies, and is confirmed once we have seen your files.
What the service fee does not cover
- Certification by a NAATI-certified translator, which is a separate package
- Consular legalisation and notarial certification
- Design-level document layout and typesetting
Turnaround
Varies with word count, subject difficulty and language pair. A timeframe is confirmed before work begins.
Our advisory role
We ask where the document is going before accepting the job, so we can say whether certification is genuinely needed. That prevents you paying for a certification step nobody asked for.
Points to watch
- If the reader requires a certified translation, a general translation cannot be substituted
- Illegible source files force interpretation, which raises the risk of error
- Proper nouns should be fixed across the whole set from the start
Frequently asked questions
How does this differ from certified translation?
A general translation carries no certification statement or stamp from a NAATI-certified translator, so it cannot be used where a certified translation is specified.
Can I upgrade to certified later?
Yes, through an additional review and certification step.
Do you handle high-volume work?
Yes, using a shared glossary so terminology stays consistent across the whole set.
