German Translation Services

German texts are long, precise and heavy on compound terms, so a translator has to know the field as well as the language.

Certified translations include a signed certificate of accuracy. From $0.11 per word.

What is the most reliable English to German translator?

The most reliable English to German translator is a native German speaker trained in your subject, with a second linguist reviewing the result. Free tools can give a quick reading, but legal, technical and official text needs a person who can be held to the translation. Tomedes holds ISO 17100:2015, ISO 18587:2017 and ISO 9001:2015 and covers every German translation with the 1-Year Quality Guarantee.

German is the fourth most common non-English language in Tomedes assignment records since January 2024, about 6.5% of all assignments, handled by 119 linguists. The largest German subjects are software interfaces and business content, followed by games and apps, technical and legal documents.

L V Prasad Eye Institute worked with Tomedes for more than two years to translate German scientific monographs into English, among six source languages. Read the LVPEI case study. The Startup Magazine also lists Tomedes second among six translation companies for startups entering new markets.

Below are the areas where German translation requests most often come from.

Why is German a priority language for global business?

German is the official language of Germany, Austria and Liechtenstein and one of the official languages of Switzerland, Belgium and Luxembourg, which puts it at the center of European market entry. About 895,000 people in the United States speak German at home (Census Bureau, 2019), and German companies and institutions send contracts, certificates, product documentation and software to English-speaking partners every day. Tomedes supports companies at every stage, from certified documents and filings to ongoing localization programs.

German to English translation services

German to English translation serves German-speaking companies, institutions and individuals who need English versions of corporate communications, financial documents, legal filings, technical specifications and marketing content. For immigration use, USCIS requires a certified translation (8 CFR 103.2(b)(3)). Business content commonly translated into English includes:

  • Corporate communications
  • Financial content
  • Legal texts
  • Marketing and advertising
  • Technical documentation

English to German translation services

English to German translation needs precision, correct terminology and a register that suits German-speaking markets, across legal, technical, medical, financial and marketing content. About 9 in 10 Tomedes German assignments since January 2024 went into German. Every translator is vetted for credentials and subject expertise, and a second specialist reviews style, terminology consistency, grammar and formatting before delivery.

Which industries need German translation?

In Tomedes assignment records since January 2024, software interfaces and business content are each about 1 in 5 German assignments, games and apps about 1 in 6, technical content about 1 in 8 and legal content about 1 in 14. Tomedes matches each project to a specialist who knows the field.

German language pairs available through Tomedes

What about sworn translations for German authorities?

German courts and authorities can ask for a translation by a sworn translator. The justice administrations of the German states keep a joint database of generally sworn, publicly appointed or authorized interpreters and translators (justiz-dolmetscher.de), and the rules changed with the Court Interpreters Act (Gerichtsdolmetschergesetz) on 1 January 2023. Tomedes certified translations carry a signed certificate of accuracy and suit USCIS and many institutions, so ask the receiving authority which it needs before ordering.
