Accurate pharmaceutical translation services worldwide

Pharmaceutical content is high-stakes: patient safety, regulatory approvals, and commercial timelines all depend on accurate, consistent, and compliant translations. Whether you are submitting to the MHRA in the UK, coordinating EMA procedures across the EU, or preparing FDA dossiers for the United States, translations must follow strict terminology and formatting rules to prevent costly questions and delays.

Global studies and supply chains add complexity. Clinical trial documents—protocols, investigator brochures, patient information sheets and consent forms—must be both scientifically precise and understandable for lay audiences. Labelling, IFUs, and artwork must comply with country-specific readability standards. Pharmacovigilance teams need rapid translation of safety reports to meet tight reporting windows.

For companies moving products between countries, translation becomes a regulatory requirement, not a preference. Local health authorities can request aligned translations for public-facing documents, packaging, and safety content. Consistency across markets reduces rework, avoids contradictory claims, and maintains brand integrity—critical when entering new regions or scaling post-approval changes.

Trust and credibility rely on using the right terminology every time. From CMC sections to SmPCs and PILs, misinterpretations can trigger compliance issues or delay approvals. Working with a partner who understands life-sciences standards and regional expectations safeguards your submissions, protects patients, and shortens time-to-market.

Kings of Translation assigns specialised linguists—pharmacists, medical writers, regulatory translators—matched to each therapeutic area. Our workflows are ISO 17100 and ISO 9001 certified, with dual-linguist review, medical QA, and final regulatory checks. We manage terminology via validated glossaries and translation memories to lock in consistency across submissions and markets.

We translate and format content to meet MHRA, EMA and FDA expectations, including eCTD-structured components, lifecycle updates, and artwork versions. For patient-facing materials, we ensure plain-language readability and cultural relevance without losing scientific accuracy. Data privacy and confidentiality are embedded through GDPR-compliant processes, NDAs, and secure file handling.

Pricing is transparent: certified translations from £29.90 per page for official documents; standard technical translation from £0.05 per word. Typical turnaround for short regulatory or safety updates is 24–48 hours, with accelerated options on request. Large multi-language projects are scheduled by a dedicated project manager to meet submission or launch timelines.

Our credentials include ISO-certified processes, membership in recognised industry associations, and certified translations accepted worldwide. We maintain a BBB A+ rating and ATA membership, and our certified translations are recognised by authorities globally. Clients choose us for responsive service, sector expertise, and a customer-first approach that supports a 98% return rate.

We combine human expertise with robust technology. Translation memory and terminology management ensure accuracy and reduce costs across updates. Our QA stack includes automated checks for terminology, numbers, and formatting, followed by human validation tailored to life-sciences content.

Integrations streamline scale. We connect to document management and RIM systems via API-based workflows, supporting validated exports for eCTD assembly. Our teams collaborate with your publishers and artwork agencies to lock fonts, line breaks, and language-dependent expansions before final QA.

For pharmacovigilance and clinical operations, we coordinate secure channels for expedited safety narratives, SUSARs and periodic reporting. Structured templates minimise cycle time while preserving required headings and language conventions. A dedicated project manager oversees timelines, change control, and stakeholder communications to keep deliverables on track.

Security is paramount: GDPR-compliant handling, access controls, and encrypted transfers protect sensitive data. Versioning, audit trails, and approval gates support GxP-aligned documentation practices, giving you a predictable, inspection-ready translation process that scales with global growth.
