Interpreting in Manila

Interpreting in Manila: ASEAN Business, BPO, and Trade Hub

Manila is the Philippines' capital and a major ASEAN business hub, a world leader in business process outsourcing (BPO) and IT-BPM and a growing center for financial services, shipping, and e-commerce. The Philippine courts, the Philippine Dispute Resolution Centre (PDRC), and ICC Manila proceedings often require certified Filipino-English interpreters, with Mandarin, Hokkien, Japanese, and Spanish frequently added given the large Chinese-Filipino business community. The Philippine Senate and House of Representatives hold committee and ASEAN preparatory sessions, the Makati financial district and Bonifacio Global City host Bangko Sentral regulatory meetings and multinational corporate negotiations, and the Philippine Ports Authority and Manila International Container Terminal generate shipping and maritime proceedings. Conference venues such as the Philippine International Convention Center, the SMX Convention Center, and the World Trade Center Metro Manila run IT-BPM summits and medical and finance congresses, while hospitals such as St. Luke's, The Medical City, and Asian Hospital add medical interpreting demand, whether the work is a conference in Pasay, a medical seminar in Quezon City, or a hearing in Taguig.

What Our Clients Say

“We contacted Betranslated services in July 2024. My daughter had time sensitive documents that required certified translation from Spanish to English. The company accommodated her request and promptly, accurately translated all of her documents ahead of time. The documents showed clearly which part had been translated to make it easy to identify. They were friendly & professional, and we would recommend their services to anyone.”

“Reliable, trustworthy and customer-centric This is the summation of Michael, Suzy and their team of translators. I have worked with them for over a year, and they have been my translation service for advertising in many European languages - from Swedish to German to Russian, and not always from English! Consider them a rare find.”
