Yes. We produce certified translations of Japanese contracts and legal documents for use in US courts, USCIS, UK courts, and international arbitration.
Yes. We have experience translating Annual Reports, Corporate Governance Reports, and regulatory filings for Tokyo Stock Exchange-listed companies.
Japanese legal documents use the most formal register of the language. Our translators are trained to render this into equally precise legal English, preserving the formal tenor of the source.
Yes. Japan's Financial Services Agency (FSA) and Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) each use a highly standardized Japanese vocabulary for statutory filings. FSA disclosure documents follow Kinyu Shohin Torihiki Ho (Financial Instruments and Exchange Act) terminology; METI regulatory filings use industry-specific statutory vocabulary from the Companies Act (Kaisha Ho). We assign translators with documented experience in each regulatory context and apply the correct institutional style guide throughout.
Standard projects are quoted per source word, with Japanese character counting applied consistently when Japanese is the source language (typically 2.5 to 3 Japanese characters per English word for legal content). Certified translation, apostille coordination, and same-day service are itemized separately. For ongoing legal programs handling regular TSE filings, M&A documentation, or corporate governance materials, we offer translation memory discounts on repeat structural content such as boilerplate regulatory language and recurring board resolution formats.
