CBBC Translation & Interpreting Services

Document and Company Profile Translation

CBBC has provided a Chinese translation service for over a decade and has supplied hundreds of companies and individuals with Chinese versions of their brochures, company profiles and websites.

Business Card Translation

CBBC’s approach to the Chinese translation of business cards is unique and aims to provide typical Chinese names according to Chinese tradition and cultural practice. Instead of giving a transliteration of English names each character of the Chinese name is carefully selected to convey a positive meaning to the reader.

Interpreters

Via its network of 11 offices across China, CBBC is able to provide qualified interpreters for companies visiting China. Interpreter services require booking at least one week in advance.
