When interpreting may be needed

Interpreting can be relevant to business discussions, interviews, consultations, community appointments, legal meetings, presentations and other conversations where participants need to understand each other accurately. The appropriate arrangement depends on the purpose, length, number of speakers and whether sensitive or specialist terminology is likely to arise.

Telephone, video and in-person requirements

Remote and on-site interpreting have different logistical needs. Tell us whether the session is expected to take place by telephone, video or at a physical location, and whether participants require consecutive interpreting or a different format. Availability, minimum duration and travel requirements should be confirmed for each assignment rather than assumed from the language alone.

Preparing the brief for an interpreter

Provide the source and target languages, date, local time zone, expected duration, location or meeting platform, subject matter and number of participants. If documents will be discussed, share relevant terminology and a suitable agenda in advance, subject to confidentiality requirements. Distinguish interpreting of spoken conversations from a separate written translation of a document.

Accuracy, impartiality and specialist contexts

Interpreting aims to convey the speaker’s meaning without adding independent advice or making decisions on a client’s behalf. Legal, medical and other sensitive situations may involve particular professional or procedural requirements. The organisation arranging the session should confirm whether qualifications, declarations, accessibility adjustments or specific safeguarding measures are required.
