Rates

bmp offers highly competitive rates and will be pleased to send you a free quote. Our fee is based either on the number of "standard lines" of translation (1 standard line = 55 keystrokes) or, for correction work, copywriting or adaptation, on the number of hours.

For details, please see our general terms & conditions.

Express surcharges

An express surcharge applies to orders with a very tight deadline. This is usually between 50% and 100%, depending on the quantity and deadline.
The surcharge will not apply to orders announced in advance (assuming the text is not unduly long).
If an order for which BMP has reserved capacity is cancelled or seriously delayed, BMP reserves the right to charge any costs incurred to the client.

We also offer attractive discounts
--for large and/or repeat orders
--for repetition within or between texts (based on analysis of files by translation memory software).
