When is telephone interpreting useful?

Telephone interpreting is ideal for small meetings, and you just require a speaker-phone. There are no interpreter travel expenses to pay and no minimum interpreting time; you pay for the minutes used – making it perfect for when you need an interpreter for short periods of time.

Telephone interpreting is not a replacement for face-to-face interpreting – after all, facial expressions and body language are sacrificed by using the phone, and these can be essential elements of communication. Face-to-face interpreting is the right option for critical business meetings and conferences, where you need to pick up all the elements of communication for a close working relationship. However, we recommend telephone interpreting for those smaller and shorter routine meetings and exchanges of information.

Most of the time, telephone interpreting between two people in the same location works with a standard phone with a loudspeaker – and, ideally, a quiet location with no background noise! If two people require interpreting over the phone, you will need your own conference call system – we can provide advice on working with well-known meeting and presentation platforms.
