Portuguese Translation Services

Portuguese is one of the most widely spoken languages in the world, and it is recognized as an official language in several countries and territories, including Angola, Brazil, Cape Verde, and Portugal. It is estimated that there are over 230 million native speakers of the language, with more than 25 million having it as a second language, bringing the ground total of speakers to over 250 million globally.

With such a global presence, it’s no surprise that you might find yourself needing Portuguese translation services. However, finding the right translator can be difficult, especially considering the nuances between Portuguese used in different countries.

When choosing Lighthouse Translations, you can be sure you receive quality translations suited for the specific country the documents you translate to or from.

Portuguese Translation Services Provided by Native Speakers

Just like Spanish, which differs depending on the country you’re translating documents to and from and requires professional Spanish translation suitable for that country, so does Portuguese. 

Although it might not seem so, translation is a much more complex process than one might think. A successful and accurate translation depends on the translator’s language background and the variety of Portuguese they specialize in. 

To understand what we mean, just take a look at the word rapariga – if used in Portugal, it would mean nothing more than ‘a girl’. However, in Brazil, it means ‘a mistress’ – the same word, seemingly the same language, but a completely different meaning depending on the country. 

That’s why at Lighthouse Translations, we work with a group of native speakers specialized in different varieties of Portuguese. Whether you need a translation into or from European Portuguese or Brazilian Portuguese, we are your guy – and you can be sure that it will be accurate. 

Our Translations Include

Simultaneous Interpretation

A communication barrier can make conducting business meetings difficult. However, with Lighthouse Translations and our simultaneous interpretation services, this problem disappears. Our experienced interpreters will translate everything that is happening in real-time, ensuring everyone present has a clear understanding of what is happening. 

Among our Portuguese simultaneous interpretation services, you can find: 

  • Business meeting interpretation
  • Escort interpretation
  • Telephonic interpretation

Conference Interpretation

Are you planning on organizing an international conference? If so, it might be a good idea to consider hiring a professional conference interpreter, as not everyone who attends might be fluent enough in English to comfortably follow what is being presented. With a dedicated interpreter, you minimize the risk of someone feeling left out at your event due to their language skills.

Translation Equipment Rentals

Do you already have an interpreter, or are you doing the interpretation yourself and simply lack the professional equipment to make the interpretation seamless? In that case, you can take advantage of our interpretation equipment rental service

We always make sure that all of our equipment is top-notch and in pristine condition – and thanks to our service, you can have access to it, too, without spending thousands of dollars yourself.

Business Translations

It’s no secret that quality is one of the most important factors of a good translation service – however, when it comes to business documents, it’s even more crucial. If a translation is inaccurate, potential clients or business associates might get the wrong idea about your business – not to mention that many business documents you will sign with them are binding contracts, and when they’re translated wrongly, it can cause all sorts of issues. 

At Lighthouse Translations, we offer translation services for a number of business documents, including:

  • Accounting documentation
  • Business agreements
  • Business correspondence
  • Financial documents
  • Marketing documents

Legal Document Translations

Legal translation is one of the more difficult types due to the different legal systems present in the countries you’re translating to and from.

However, at Lighthouse Translations, you can be sure that your legal document translation is accurate, as we don’t only work with translators – our network of professionals we collaborate with also includes legal experts, such as attorneys and paralegals.

Among our legal documents translation services, you can find:

  • Birth certificates
  • Contracts and agreements
  • Immigration process documentation
  • Manuals
  • Patents

Medical Translations

Medical documents require the translator to be experienced in the medical niche. It’s a very specific type of translation, which is why not every person who specializes in it is also qualified enough to translate medical documentation. 

Our translators have years of experience within the medical niche, which ensures that even if the words and phrases cannot be directly translated into Portuguese, the translation is still as accurate. Additionally, all of our translators are done in accordance with HIPAA, ensuring that all of your sensitive information is protected and seen only by us. 

The medical documentation translation services we offer include: 

  • Clinical trial documentation
  • Medical device instructions
  • Patient medical records

Website Translations

Having an online presence is essential in today’s world, and having a website that targets customers from different countries through targeted language pages can help you tremendously in expanding your client base to foreign markets.

With our website translation services, you can expand your business beyond the borders of your country and reach customers that you wouldn’t be able to reach otherwise.
