Frequently Asked Questions

Do Safety Data Sheets need to be translated into Chinese for exports to China?

Yes. Products exported to China with hazardous chemical components generally require an SDS translated and formatted to Chinese regulatory standards before customs clearance and sale.

What standard do Chinese Safety Data Sheets follow?

China's Safety Data Sheets follow GB/T 16483 and GB 15258 standards, which have formatting and content differences from the GHS-based SDS used in Malaysia and most other markets. We translate and adapt the structure to match.

Can technical manuals be translated by a general translator?

Not reliably. Technical manuals contain industry-specific terminology, units, and safety-critical instructions. We match translators with relevant technical or engineering background to your document.

How is technical translation priced differently from general documents?

Technical translation is priced at the same per-word rate as other certified documents, but usually involves a terminology review pass first for accuracy. We confirm scope before quoting on longer manuals.

Do you translate CAD drawings and technical diagrams?

We translate the text within CAD drawings, datasheets, and technical diagrams. We don't edit CAD files directly, so please provide the drawing labels or text as a separate list or export where possible.

How long does technical or manufacturing translation take?

Standard technical translation is delivered within 24-48 hours for typical documents. Longer manuals are quoted with a specific turnaround based on page count.

How much does certified Chinese technical translation cost?

From RM150 per page for standard certified translation, RM180 per page for urgent same-day service. Long manuals qualify for volume discounts.
