EXPERTS IN GOVERNMENT NAATI INTERPRETING

Supporting government multilingual needs

Confidentiality and confidence are all important and our local team of interpreters in many languages is committed to delivering outstanding interpreting services to meet our clients’ needs.

While some of our work is high profile like prime ministers and foreign leaders, governments at all levels have selected us for over 30 years when they require quality interpreting which is a cut above what is usually offered by interpreting agencies.

The Assurance of Vetted Expertise for Government Confidence
Government clients tell us that they value the personal responsiveness, attention to detail and quality of our work. Rather than an automated one-size-fits-all approach, we match the best interpreter with the needs of our clients and ensure they are well prepared.

Whether a visiting delegation touring the region, a meeting, government audits, or an event, we support federal, state and local governments.

NAATI Certified Interpreters
Quality and professionalism are important to us. That’s why all of our interpreters are certified, demonstrating their expertise and commitment to providing the highest level of service.

We provide translators and interpreters for Korean, Japanese, Vietnamese, Chinese and many more.

If you need a certified interpreter, don’t look any further. Our team is ready to take your call and book an interpreter for your next official meeting, delegation, or event.

Interpreting for major events, small meetings, and long programs

Conferences
From hundreds of attendees to more tailored needs, simultaneous interpreters will save time and are expected for conferences. The equipment, technical support and suitably experienced interpreters for one language or many – all at once – will ensure a successful event and happy delegates.

Events
Celebrating at a gala, running an incentive program, sporting or cultural activities – if one or more languages are needed, book in our events team specialising in event interpretation.

Delegations
Here for training, touring, inspections, bilateral meetings, or audits, a reliable, experienced interpreter will ensure your important messages are received and help to deliver successful outcomes for trade and government.

Meetings
Could be on zoom or other platforms or in person, don’t forget you need to extend the time to allow for interpretation.

Training
Education programs across areas such as government, law, health, biotech, agriculture and finance, the key is to match relevant interpreter experience with the topic and to facilitate good preparation.

The success of any official engagement hinges on precise communication. We provide NAATI interpreters to ensure your objectives are met, whether planned months in advance or required at a moment’s notice.

Yes, we have interpreters with valid Negative Vetting clearances. This is something we take seriously, especially when working with federal and state departments. You don’t want to reach the service agreement stage only to find out the interpreter isn’t cleared to work with your delegation. We make sure that clearance is confirmed upfront, so there are no surprises and everything runs smoothly from the start.

In addition to the strict process involved in obtaining a Negative Vetting clearance, which already carries serious confidentiality obligations, we also have NDAs and interpreter agreements in place. This means that when we provide interpreting services to government departments, agencies or the prime minister’s office, confidentiality is front and centre.

For more than thirty years, we’ve been trusted to provide interpreting services at the highest levels of government. Since the time of the Hon John Howard, our interpreters have supported Australia’s Prime Ministers, worked with departments and agencies across Canberra, New South Wales and Victoria, and assisted the Victorian State Government in its exchanges with sister cities abroad.

Yes absolutely. We provide interpreters for multi-day delegation visits, including those that begin in one state and continue across others. In most cases, we’re able to secure the same interpreter for the full itinerary, which helps maintain continuity and rapport throughout the visit. We understand that final confirmation from the delegation can take time, and we do our best to accommodate. The earlier we’re notified, the better we can plan.
