Why expats and foreign firms choose iVC for Vietnamese legal translation
Highest liability class — a single mistranslated clause in a THB-million contract can trigger cross-border litigation. Translators must hold a legal background or work in tandem with a native-speaking lawyer. iVC matches every vietnamese legal project with a translator who holds subject-matter credentials and works inside a CAT environment (Trados Studio 2024 + MultiTerm) so terminology is consistent across every file in your programme. Each deliverable passes a documented four-eyes review — translator → subject editor → proofreader → QA sign-off — before it goes near a notary or an embassy counter. Foreign investors need clean legal translations for BOI applications, Amity Treaty filings, and share-transfer documentation.

Can you deliver in 24 hours?
Yes for 1–5 pages at +50%. Larger urgent projects need a short scoping call so we can assemble the right team without breaking QA.
How many revisions are included?
Unlimited revisions for genuine translation errors. Client style-preference edits after sign-off are billed at 30% of the original per-page rate.
