Standard and Regulatory Translation – What is The Difference?
Produktų etikečių vertimas – tai daugiau nei žodžių konvertavimas. Jūsų produkto sėkmė rinkoje gali priklausyti nuo vieno žodžio. Užsakant produkto etiketės vertimą, svarbu žinoti, kokio tipo vertimo jums reikės: įprasto vertimo ar reguliacinio (specializuoto) vertimo.
Standard Label Translation
This service involves translating text from one language to another while preserving its meaning, flow, and natural tone. The client provides content that already meets all regulatory requirements and takes full responsibility for the accuracy of the original text. Our translators are responsible solely for delivering a fluent and accurate translation.
Regulatory Translation
This type of translation goes beyond language. The text must not only be linguistically correct, but also clear, precise, and fully aligned with applicable legal and regulatory requirements. By choosing regulatory translation, you entrust your content to specialists who not only translate the text, but also ensure it meets all relevant regulations and industry standards — taking full responsibility for its accuracy and compliance.
What does regulatory translation include?
An incorrect regulatory translation can have legal consequences — for example, if Google Translate is used, the product may need to be relabeled; if an allergen is not indicated, the product may have to be recalled from the market. Here is an example of the stages involved in regulatory product translation:
- Contains all mandatory elements in accordance with the main food labelling regulation (product name, ingredients, warnings, required phrases, etc.)
- Complies with the terminology and phrasing related to food additives
- Aligns with national regulatory terminology
- Does not conflict with advertising law requirements
- Reflects recommendations issued by regulatory authorities
- Follows market practice
- If any risks related to product placement on the market are identified, the client is always informed
