What standard must a simultaneous interpreting booth meet?
Short answer
Mobile booths follow ISO 4043 and permanently installed booths follow ISO 2603, with the interpreting equipment itself covered by ISO 20109. Those standards fix booth size, sound insulation, ventilation and, critically, a direct unobstructed view of the speaker and the screen.
Line of sight is the requirement venues most often get wrong. A booth placed behind a pillar, or facing away from the presentation screen, forces interpreters to work from audio alone and quality drops within minutes — slides, gestures and who is actually speaking all carry meaning. Ask the venue for the booth position on the floor plan before the event, not on the morning of it.
Sound matters just as much. Interpreters need a clean feed from the floor microphones, not a room microphone picking up the PA, and every speaker (including audience questions) must be on a microphone. Where the room cannot host a compliant booth, the usual alternatives are a full audio feed to a remote interpreting platform or a switch to consecutive interpreting with extra time in the agenda.
