Portuguese translation for the audience you need to reach

A document for a client in Lisbon and a website for customers in São Paulo may both need Portuguese translation, but they do not need the same approach. Tell us where your content will be used, and we will help you choose the right language variant, terminology and tone.

Kwintessential translates between Portuguese and English for businesses, legal teams and individuals. We handle everything from contracts and technical materials to websites, marketing copy and personal documents. Your project is assigned to a linguist with relevant subject knowledge and experience of the target language.

Whether you have one document or an ongoing stream of content, our team will confirm the scope, deadline and delivery format before work begins.

Why work with Kwintessential?

  • Translation from English into Portuguese and from Portuguese into English
  • Linguists selected for the subject matter and target audience
  • Support for Brazilian and European Portuguese, with other markets considered in the project brief
  • A project manager to coordinate files, terminology, feedback and delivery

What makes Kwintessential different

The right language for your audience

We establish where the translation will be read before selecting a linguist and agreeing the language variant.

Relevant subject knowledge

Legal, commercial and technical content is assigned with its specialist terminology in mind.

Clear project management

You have a point of contact for questions, schedules and updates throughout the project.

Quality processes

Our translation workflows are supported by ISO 9001 and ISO 17100 certification.

Portuguese to English and English to Portuguese

The direction of translation matters. For Portuguese to English projects, we assign a linguist who writes naturally in the required variety of English. For English to Portuguese work, we consider whether the intended audience is in Brazil, Portugal or another Portuguese-speaking market.

We can also work with existing terminology, brand guidance and reference material. If several documents belong to the same project, share them together so we can maintain consistent wording across the set.

Our Portuguese translation projects commonly include:

  • Contracts, correspondence and business records
  • Technical manuals, specifications and product information
  • Websites, e-commerce content and marketing materials
  • Reports, presentations and internal communications
  • Personal documents and material for official submissions

If a receiving organisation has requested a certified translation, send us its instructions with the document. We will review what form of certification is needed for that submission.

    Brazilian or European Portuguese?

    Brazilian and European Portuguese share a language, but vocabulary, phrasing and conventions differ. Those differences are particularly noticeable in customer-facing content such as websites, product descriptions and campaigns.

    Tell us which country or audience you are targeting. We can prepare content for Brazil or Portugal. If you are targeting another Portuguese-speaking market, tell us where the content will be used so we can discuss the right approach. If you need versions for more than one audience, we can plan the work around the content they share and the passages that need local adaptation.

    For material such as a website or campaign, translation may be one part of a broader website localisation project. We can discuss that when reviewing your brief.

    Tell us about your project

    Send us the files or a link to the content, along with the language direction, target country and deadline. Let us know how the translation will be used and whether you have preferred terminology, formatting requirements or instructions from a receiving organisation.

    We will review the material, clarify any requirements and provide a quote. Our team aims to respond to enquiries within one working hour.
