Professional Interpreter Services in Singapore

Singapore is Asia's premier international arbitration and commercial dispute resolution center, home to the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC) at Maxwell Chambers, the Singapore International Commercial Court, and a court system whose rulings carry weight across the region.

Its role as ASEAN's de facto headquarters city keeps diplomatic and intergovernmental meetings on the calendar year-round, while the banking towers of Raffles Place, Shenton Way, and Marina Bay run a constant flow of investor presentations, regulatory meetings with the Monetary Authority of Singapore, and cross-border M&A talks, frequently supported by financial translation of the deal documents.

The city is also a leading regional healthcare destination: Singapore General Hospital, the National University Hospital, KK Women's and Children's Hospital, Mount Elizabeth, and Raffles Hospital draw medical-tourism patients, with medical translation of records frequently required, from across Southeast Asia, and convention venues such as Singapore EXPO, Suntec Singapore, and Sands Expo fill the year with finance, technology, and life-sciences congresses. In each of these settings a single ambiguous rendering can change the course of an award, a clinical decision, or a deal, which is why generalist interpreting rarely suffices here.

BeTranslated provides simultaneous interpreting in ISO-compliant booths for SIAC arbitration and conference programs, consecutive interpreting for Supreme Court hearings, depositions, and boardroom negotiations, whispered (chuchotage) interpreting for one-to-one consultations, and escort interpreting for delegations and site visits across Marina Bay, Orchard Road, Jurong, and the wider Central Business District.

For hybrid and online programs we run remote simultaneous interpreting and video remote interpreting on Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Webex, and we arrange booths, receiver units, and on-site technicians where a venue lacks built-in cabins.

Mandarin, Malay, Tamil, Hindi, and Indonesian are among the most requested pairs, with Japanese, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, Bahasa Melayu, and other Southeast Asian languages also covered, and we field court-certified interpreters for proceedings at the Singapore Supreme Court and the Singapore International Commercial Court, with certified legal translation for SIAC arbitration and court filings.
