Description

The AUSIT Best Practices for the Translation of Official and Legal Documents was first released in 2014 and minor amendments were made to the guidelines in 2022. It provides a wealth of recommendations about how to present official translations for use in the Australian market, including discussions on how to handle particular document content like signatures, logos, spelling mistakes and abbreviations. This is a session designed for people who have had to work out for themselves how to do all these things, and it aims to standardise treatment across language pairs by discussing some of the existing AUSIT recommended best practices and the rationale behind them. Recommended for: New and experienced practitioners who are not familiar with the AUSIT Best Practices for the Translation of Official and Legal Documents.
