Turkish Document Translation Services

 

Alafranga has been translating documents between Turkish and English, German and other European languages since 2002, including legal, technical, medical and financial documents, official certificates and corporate materials.

 

A translated document is not finished when the words are done. It is finished when the file opens, the layout holds, the figures still line up with the text, and it can go to print or to a filing.

 

That is what separates document work from the rest. Website content lives in resource files. Subtitles live against a timecode. A document lives inside a fixed page, and translation puts pressure on every part of that page. Turkish adds its own pressure: the text usually runs longer than the English source, and characters such as ğ, ş, ı and İ have to survive every font, every conversion and every scanned original.
 


Need the translated document typeset and print-ready?
We offer DTP as an integrated service alongside document translation and support InDesign, FrameMaker, Word, and structured documentation formats. The translated file is returned in the original layout, with text expansion handled, fonts verified for target language character sets, and formatting consistent with the source.

▮Questions We Hear Before Every Project
 
  • What types of Turkish documents do you translate? We translate technical, legal, medical, and regulated documents between Turkish and English and between Turkish and 40+ further languages. From machinery manuals and engineering specifications to contracts, compliance filings, clinical documentation, and pharmaceutical content. Every document is matched to a Turkish specialist with subject-matter expertise in the relevant field.

  • How do you ensure quality in Turkish document translation? Our quality process is certified to ISO 17100:2015, audited by Bureau Veritas. Every project follows a structured workflow: briefing and asset preparation, translation by a domain-matched Turkish specialist, independent review by a second specialist, and automated QA checks before delivery. Terminology is managed through client-specific glossaries maintained across projects.

  • What is the difference between human and AI-assisted translation for Turkish documents? Human translation is our fully human workflow, every document translated and reviewed independently by two Turkish-specialist linguists. No AI involvement unless explicitly requested. Best for legal contracts, regulatory submissions, and safety-critical documentation. AI-assisted translation uses an AI draft generated inside memoQ or SDL Trados with your translation memory and glossary applied, then reviewed by a human Turkish specialist. Faster turnaround for suitable content types. We run a free feasibility assessment before applying AI-assisted translation to any document.

  • Which languages do you cover alongside Turkish? Turkish is our founding language pair, active since 2002. Around it, we work across 40+ languages including German, French, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Polish, Romanian, Arabic, Persian, Hebrew, and Greek. For multilingual programmes requiring multiple language pairs simultaneously, we manage all pairs through a single point of contact with shared terminology governance.
