WHAT AFFECTS PRICE

What affects price

Every price on this page already includes MVA, so the number you see is the number you pay for a standard order. Three things move it from there: language band — Group A languages are priced at ×1.00, Group B languages at ×1.25, reflecting genuine differences in specialist availability; tier — standard or express, with express clearly marked as a +40% next-working-day option, never a silent default; and source quality — a document we can read cleanly costs less to translate accurately than a blurred scan or a locked, non-editable PDF, which is why that case carries an openly stated +15%. Nothing else changes the number once you've added something to your cart.

FAQ

Pricing FAQ

Are these prices final, or estimates?

They're the real prices for a standard order of that unit — what you see in your cart is what you pay, plus any surcharge you've explicitly selected (express, weekend, business delivery).

What if my job doesn't fit neatly into one unit?

Order the number of blocks/pages/hours closest to your job, or use the estimator for a range, or request a quote for anything genuinely unusual — all three are honest paths, not upsells.

Why does Group B cost more than Group A?

Group B covers languages where qualified specialist translators are genuinely less available in the Norwegian market — the ×1.25 reflects that reality, not an arbitrary premium.

Is VAT added on top of these prices?

No — every price shown already includes 25% MVA. Checkout breaks the MVA component out as its own line so you can see it, but it isn't added afterwards.

What's the minimum I can spend?

NOK 690 per order. If your cart total is below that, a top-up line brings it to the minimum, shown clearly before you check out.
