Advertising Translation Services
Our native-language copywriters translate and adapt display ads, broadcast scripts, outdoor campaigns, and digital advertising copy. They know the creative conventions of each local market.
Why Advertising Translation Requires Creative Adaptation
Advertising copy is built on wordplay, cultural reference, and emotional resonance. A direct translation of an English tagline rarely works in French, German, or Japanese because the cultural context, the pun, or the phonetic appeal vanishes.
Advertising translation is therefore transcreation: the message and emotional effect are preserved, but the expression is rebuilt from the ground up in the target language.
BeTranslated provides advertising translation and transcreation for display ads, TV and radio scripts, outdoor and billboard campaigns, digital ad copy, and paid social creative.
Our advertising translators are native-language copywriters with creative agency experience. We deliver alternatives for review where transcreation produces multiple viable options, and work directly with your brand guidelines and brand voice documentation.
Campaign contracts, licences and regulatory filings behind the creative can be delivered as certified translations, each with a signed certificate of accuracy.
Campaign launches, creative briefings and client presentations often run across several languages, and professional interpreting services cover them in the room or online.
What We Translate
Display and Digital Ad Copy
Banner ads, responsive display ads, HTML5 rich media, and programmatic ad copy translated and adapted for local digital advertising standards and character limits.
TV and Radio Script Translation
Broadcast script adaptation for 15-, 30-, and 60-second spots. Timing-synced to source audio, with phonetic notes for voice talent and local broadcast compliance review.
Outdoor and Billboard Advertising
OOH and DOOH copy adapted for brevity, visual impact, and local cultural relevance. Character and line constraints respected for fixed-format outdoor placements.
Paid Social Creative
Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and LinkedIn ad copy translated for local audiences with platform-specific character limits, CTAs, and cultural tone adjustments.
Tagline and Slogan Transcreation
Brand taglines and campaign slogans transcreated with multiple options and rationale provided. Native-language copywriters rebuild the creative logic rather than translating word for word.
Google Ads and SEM Copy

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between advertising translation and transcreation?
Translation transfers meaning as accurately as possible. Transcreation rebuilds the creative expression from scratch in the target language, preserving the emotional effect and brand voice rather than the literal words. We recommend transcreation for taglines, slogans, and broadcast scripts.
Can you match our brand voice in multiple languages?
Yes. We work from your brand guidelines and tone-of-voice documentation. Where these do not exist in the target language, we develop a brief with your team before translation begins to ensure consistency across markets.
What turnaround can I expect for a multilingual ad campaign?
Short-form ad copy (display banners, social ads) in 3 to 5 languages typically returns within 3 to 5 business days. Broadcast scripts and transcreation projects take 5 to 10 business days depending on complexity.
