Rates As the structures of the Hungarian and English languages are completely different, the same text uses about 10-15% more words in English than in Hungarian. Accordingly, I charge different rates for each language pair:
Hungarian into English: GBP 0.07/word, EUR 0.08/word, USD 0.09/word (+VAT, if applicable)
English into Hungarian: GBP 0.06/word, EUR 0.07/word, USD 0.08/word (+VAT, if applicable)
I can take repetitions and fuzzy hits into account, which can result in significantly lower costs, depending on the text and volume. My company has a UK bank account for payments in GBP, and also two accounts in Hungary (in HUF and in EUR), so payment by bank transfer to any of these accounts is preferred. IMPORTANT! The above prices are for bank transfer only. I do not accept PayPal!
My company is VAT registered, therefore I need to charge 20% UK VAT in the following two cases:
Client is registered in the United Kingdom; or
Client is registered in the European Economic Area, and does not have a valid EC VAT number.
I also run a small translation agency, so many other languages are covered: www.shd-translations.uk
