What Is ISO 17100:2015?
ISO 17100:2015 is the international standard issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that sets out the requirements for delivering high-quality translation services, from receiving the document to delivering the final translation.
The standard focuses on three main areas:
- Translation stages: translation, followed by the translator’s own check, then revision by a second reviser other than the translator, before final verification and delivery.
- Competences and qualifications: clear requirements for the qualifications and competences of translators and revisers, along with continuing professional development.
- Project management and client relations: agreeing on requirements before work begins, keeping client data confidential, and handling client feedback.
What Does This Certificate Mean for You as a Client?
- Your translation goes through a second revision by an independent reviser before delivery, as the standard requires.
- Your documents are handled by translators and revisers who meet the competence and qualification requirements set by the standard.
- Clear steps from receiving your request to delivery, with your documents kept confidential.
- A certificate issued by a British professional association specialized in the translation industry.
