What types of interpreting are available, and when should you use each one?
- Consecutive interpreting: for negotiations, business meetings, and smaller professional discussions — the interpreter renders the message after each shorter section of speech.
- Simultaneous interpreting: for conferences, larger events, and multilingual settings — interpreting takes place in real time, typically from an interpreting booth.
- On-site interpreting: in industrial, factory, and other workplace settings, in Hungary and abroad.
- Remote interpreting: for online events, in both consecutive and simultaneous formats.
If you are not sure which type would best suit your event, send us a brief description of the location, topic, duration, and number of participants, and we will help you choose the right solution.
How much is an interpreter's hourly or daily rate?
The cost of interpreting depends on several factors:
- the type of interpreting (consecutive or simultaneous)
- the language pair
- the duration and location of the event
- any technical equipment needed
Quotes are usually based on a time block, such as up to 4 or 8 hours; if the event runs longer, overtime is charged at an hourly rate. For assignments outside Budapest, travel costs and availability fees may also apply.
Once we have the details of the event, we can provide a precise, tailored quote.
Why does simultaneous interpreting require two interpreters?
In simultaneous interpreting, the interpreter works in real time: listening to the speaker, processing the message, and rendering it into the target language all at once. This requires intense concentration and can only be sustained at the highest level for a limited period of time.
For longer events, two interpreters therefore work together in the same booth and usually take turns every 20–30 minutes. While one interpreter is speaking, the other follows the presentation, takes notes, checks terminology, and supports their colleague where needed.
This ensures that the audience receives accurate, fluent, and easy-to-follow interpreting from the beginning of the event to the end.
Is interpreting equipment, such as a booth or headsets, required, and can Edimart provide it?
Simultaneous interpreting usually requires dedicated interpreting equipment, such as a soundproof interpreting booth, microphones, and headsets for participants. For multilingual events, relay interpreting equipment may also be needed.
We can provide this together with the interpreting service, including on-site project management, so you do not need to arrange it separately. Once we know the venue and the number of participants, we will recommend the appropriate technical setup.
What languages and locations do you cover?
How experienced are your interpreters?
How do I book an interpreter, and what should I provide in advance?
Preparation is an essential part of any interpreting assignment, so it is best to contact us as early as possible and share the relevant materials in advance. For a quote, please send us:
- the date and venue of the event
- the language pair and the topic
- the type of interpreting (consecutive or simultaneous)
- any useful background materials: the programme, presentations, and the speakers’ names and roles
Based on this information, we will prepare a quote and reserve the right interpreter for your event.
