Services & Pricing
Wada Translation Office offers superior translations in the fields of finance, marketing, IT, and more.
As part of our commitment to ensuring superior translations, all documents are scrutinized by our founder to maintain consistent, high quality. In addition, we have systems in place to rigorously protect all customer data in compliance with our strict data and privacy policies.
Finance, Investor Relations, and Sustainability Translation
The field of finance is fragmented into a diverse subset of areas requiring unique expertise. Securing translation quality in these areas requires linguists to keep a trained eye on daily developments around the world. With this in mind, our office only assigns these sensitive tasks to a handful of finance professionals who have the expertise and the awareness to cater to these practical expectations.
Our work in finance and securities goes beyond reports on equity, debt, and foreign exchange; we also cover investment fund reports and highly-specialized derivative documents. In the accounting and IR areas, we are able to provide IT background knowledge to handle more complex projects. Moreover, we are well-versed in the areas of insurance, FinTech, and ESG.
Strict data protection is an essential part of working in finance. As a general rule, as the number of people handling confidential data increases, security risks tend to balloon in magnitude. However, our office can help mitigate this risk by limiting access to only our chief translator or other essential reviewers.

Marketing Translation
We create natural, effective marketing material translations indistinguishable from original materials crafted for the target language audience. Our focus in ensuring a faithful, fluent document is to have a firm grasp of the source document's true intention, thereby reflecting its message in the target document.
In marketing, we realize that there are a number of projects focused on concise, sharp expressions, like sales promotion materials, websites, brochures, advertisements, white papers, and many more. In our work, we ensure that the strengths of our clients' source materials can shine through with an uncompromising fluency and faithfulness to their original intent.
Our office also accepts creative projects requiring a touch of inspiration, such as copywriting, transcreation, and subtitling. We help customers get the results they want by ensuring their message is well-reflected in translated documents.

IT Translation
The world of digital technologies is ever-evolving. It is now a given that today's cutting edge may be obsolete in only a few years. Our office stays aware of the latest technology trends to deliver reliable translations.
As corporations increasingly adopt digital technologies, they have also been working to analyze and accelerate their operations through digital transformation (DX), a series of initiatives often spearheaded by U.S. companies. Our office stands ready to support companies as they engage in DX and other digital and technology-related initiatives.
Remarkable evolution is afoot in software and hardware as well. Today, corporations are more commonly migrating their data management to cloud environments while maintaining due care in security. We also accept orders to translate operating manuals as new electronic devices continue to be brought to market.

Other Translation Fields
Wada Translation Office also handles legal and tourism-related translations.
In the legal field, we leverage our founder's academic background in legal studies to render faithful translations of contracts and finance-related legal documents.
In the tourism field, we pride ourselves in translations that inspire potential inbound tourists. We owe this to the experience and background of our founder, a guide-interpreter licensed by the Japanese government, and a native of the country's ancient capital and tourist hotspot of Nara.
