BJ Translations Ltd is a company based in Kent, UK which has been offering high quality language services for two decades to clients throughout Europe, North America and the Far East. Our focus has traditionally been on the translation, typesetting (DTP) and interpreting of oriental languages, particularly Japanese, but we are willing to discuss any requirements you may have. We offer the advantages of a small organization — individual attention, affordable prices, fast turnaround — while being able to call on the services of teams of qualified, personally vetted translators or interpreters for larger assignments.
