Q1011. How far ahead should we book an interpreter?
Answered by the NYC Visa & Translation interpreting team
For English and Chinese general business work, five to seven working days. For Japanese, Korean, German and French, one to two weeks. For scarce combinations such as Arabic, Russian or the Scandinavian languages, two to four weeks. Simultaneous assignments with equipment should be confirmed at least two weeks out so both the team and the hardware are secured. For urgent requests, call and we will check live availability.
