    Having a professional translator is fundamental to guarantee the quality of the final result of the translations. Professional translation services must contemplate translation and proofreading processes that help to improve the quality of texts, the terminology and the terminological consistency of all the contents.

    The main standard that guarantees a professional translation service is the UNE 17100 standard, a European standard that reviews translation and proofreading processes and established minimum requirements for the profiles involved during the translation process.

    The UNE 17100 standard requires, among other things:

    • That professional translators involved in the translation and proofreading process are professionals with university training in Translation and Interpretation, in Philology o in related careers.
    • The professional translators are natives in the target language and have extensive knowledge of the original language.
    • The professional translators and proofreaders involved in the translation process have demonstrable and professional experience in translation.

    What’s more, professional translation tools (CAT tools) exist that help to improve the quality of the translations. CAT tools are professional translation software and one of its main advantages is that it allows the creation of translation memories and terminological glossaries that help to maintain the same terminological consistency in every business communication.
