Business Trip Interpretation

Overseas Business Trip Interpretation (Escort)

A local interpreter accompanies your full itinerary on trips to China, Southeast Asia and Europe. Because we assign people already based near our Shanghai, Chicago and Berlin offices, no interpreter airfare or accommodation is charged.

We assign local people

Taking an interpreter from Seoul adds airfare, hotel nights and paid travel days straight onto the cost. With offices in Shanghai, Chicago and Berlin and a network of accredited linguists across 27+ countries, we assign someone who joins you at the destination. Korean and Mandarin interpretation for a Shanghai trip is the clearest example.

Where it is used

Plant and production facility visits, trade fair and exhibition meetings, local subsidiary and joint venture discussions, buyer visits and institutional calls. The location keeps changing, which makes this different from meeting-room work. Conversation continues in transit, during equipment walk-throughs on the factory floor and over meals, so an escort interpreter who moves with the whole schedule is the right fit.

How working hours are counted

Six hours a day is the standard, and travel time, waiting time and meals taken together all count as working hours. Beyond that, time is billed in 30-minute units. Local transport within the city is included in the rate; if the schedule moves to another region or requires an overnight stay, only those actual costs are settled separately.
