Officially recognised translators in Bern – legally sound German translations

Panorama Languages delivers certified and professional translations for Bern – recognised by the civil registry office, immigration authority and courts in Bern, with a fixed price from 1.15 CHF per line and a quote in around two hours.

In Bern we focus on results you can put to use straight away: professional translation, legal translation, certified translation, interpreting and proofreading are coordinated so that internal sign-offs at companies and institutions – from parliament and public administration through to universities – go through smoothly. German and English are the standard; we additionally handle projects in French and Turkish. Rush jobs stay predictable, because the layout and formatting of complex documents – from contracts and general terms and conditions to manuals – are carried over so they can be used directly. For technical teams the same applies to an operating manual or a data sheet, with no follow-up tinkering.

What matters is the right subject-matter fit: legal, technical or medical content is handled by expert teams; a mandatory four-eyes review keeps terminology consistent and ensures that figures, tables and illustrations are carried over correctly. For multilingual projects in Bern – for instance documents ranging from public authorities to research institutions – we extend German and English, depending on the audience, with a Hebrew translator or a Russian translator. Whether it is a privacy policy, a contract or project documentation: queries are resolved efficiently, and the final layout is set so that teams in law firms, laboratories or editorial offices can carry on working without detours.
