Portuguese Medical Translation at BeTranslated
Brazil is Latin America's largest pharmaceutical market and home to ANVISA, the national health surveillance authority with detailed submission requirements. Portugal operates under EMA frameworks. Our Portuguese medical translators are native speakers with medical or pharmaceutical qualifications and experience with both regulatory environments.
More about Portuguese Medical Translation
Spoken support for patient consultations and care conferences is covered too, with professional interpreting services working between Portuguese and English. Hospital records and physician letters bound for a US hospital or a hospital in Europe are a separate case, and certified translations for official use can be ordered with the rest of the project. The recipient sets the requirements, so share them early.

Portuguese Medical Translation: Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have experience with ANVISA regulatory submissions?
Yes. Our Brazilian Portuguese medical translators are familiar with ANVISA technical documentation requirements and the specific formatting conventions for drug registration dossiers.
Can you translate for both Portugal and Brazil on the same project?
Yes. We can produce two parallel versions in the same project, one in European Portuguese and one in Brazilian Portuguese, with consistent medical terminology throughout.
How do you manage terminology across large clinical trial dossiers?
We create a project-specific glossary and enforce it consistently using CAT tools and translation memories across all documents in the dossier.
Which Lusophone health authorities do you cover beyond ANVISA and INFARMED?
In addition to ANVISA (Brazil) and INFARMED (Portugal), we work with Angola's ARMED (Agencia Reguladora de Medicamentos e Tecnologias de Saude), Mozambique's DNAM (Direccao Nacional de Assistencia Medica) regulatory submissions, and Cape Verde's health authority filings.
For multi-country Lusophone Africa submissions we run a single source pass and adapt terminology to each national authority's conventions in parallel.
How do you protect confidential patient data and trial protocols in Portuguese projects?
Every translator and project manager signs a GDPR-aligned data processing agreement before receiving any patient-identifiable or trial-confidential material. Files are transferred over encrypted channels, processed on secure infrastructure, and purged from our systems on project closure unless you request translation memory retention.
For Brazil-originating projects we apply LGPD (Lei Geral de Protecao de Dados) aligned data handling on top of EU GDPR standard protocols.
