Where do you start?

Who we help.

Most visitors arrive with one of three jobs in mind. Pick yours and we'll cut the path.

Where we work

Sector specialists, not generalists.

Healthcare, legal, business and community settings each demand a different kind of interpreter. We brief, vet and match for the work — not just the language.

FAQ

Quick answers.

How quickly can you confirm a booking?

Most bookings are answered the same business day. Urgent healthcare and legal requests are prioritised — tick the "urgent" box on the form, or call 0800 833 225 directly and someone will pick up.

Are your interpreters certified?

Yes. All our non-NZSL interpreters hold NAATI certification or are working towards it (NAATI is the New Zealand public-sector standard since 1 July 2024). Our healthcare and legal interpreters carry sector-specific experience on top.

Can you handle Immigration NZ translations?

Yes — certified translations for Immigration NZ, NZTA driver-licence conversions, the Courts, and statutory bodies. We also handle birth, marriage and death certificates, academic qualifications and statutory declarations.

Do you cover regions where you don't have an office?

Yes. We're a nationwide service. In-person interpreters are dispatched from the nearest hub; phone and video interpreting is available anywhere in Aotearoa at short notice.

What does it cost?

Pricing depends on language, mode (in person / phone / video), duration and sector. Send through the form below or call 0800 833 225 — we'll come back with a quote, usually the same business day.
