Can an interpreter sign a non-disclosure agreement?
Short answer
Yes. Signing an NDA before a due-diligence session, a board meeting, a mediation or a medical consultation is normal practice, and an interpreter working on commercially or medically sensitive material should expect to be asked.
Confidentiality already applies as a professional duty and, where the material includes personal data, under the Personal Data Protection Act B.E. 2562. A written NDA adds three things worth having: it names exactly what is confidential, it sets how long the duty runs, and it states what happens to notes and recordings afterwards. Ask for those three clauses specifically rather than accepting a generic template.
Two practical carve-outs to keep. First, an interpreter cannot agree to conceal information they are legally required to disclose, so keep the standard exception for disclosure required by law or court order. Second, interpreters make working notes and glossaries; agree in advance whether notes are destroyed after the assignment or retained under lock.
