Insurance Translation Services

Customers today want fast and guided interactions when dealing with insurance issues.

If you work in an international insurance company, you will know that besides investing in technologies that provide best-in-class user experiences and scale to meet demands, accurate translations also make a difference since it not only involves lots of document work but also money at stake.

When it comes to our daily lives, the word “insurance” is no stranger to most of us.

Growing up and entering adulthood or as we call it “adulting”, it is something that majority of us could relate to.

Proper understanding and accuracy

With the onslaught of insurance companies available in the market, we are constantly introduced to various services for us to choose from.

Companies aside, this also means there are a lot of different insurance plans for us to subscribe to. Some examples would be savings plan, healthcare, old-age and retirement plans.

The process of choosing the best company and plans suitable for our personal needs is indeed a gruelling procedure where proper understanding and accuracy are needed.

Multi languages required

In a country like Singapore where English is the dominant language, almost all of our insurance documents and updates are in English. This makes it easier for us to understand the terms and explanations by our insurance agents.

As the documents are in a language where most Singaporeans are able to recognise, it makes the entire process a little easier for the majority of us.

However, there are times where other languages are needed in certain situations as well.

For example, the older generation in Singapore might not be too familiar with the English language and would prefer documents to be translated into something they are more comfortable with.

As a multi-racial country, this would mean that the Chinese, Malay and Tamil languages are also in demand.

Insurance Documents Translation and Their Legal Implicationse

Insurance documents have important legal implications, both for the person purchasing the insurance and for the company providing it.

Translating insurance documents into other languages is therefore a highly specialised skill, as it requires not only an understanding of the insurance industry but also a talent for linguistics.

So what happens when insurance companies require their materials to be translated into different languages?

For some, they may have an internal team to work on the details, but this might not be the reality for others who do not have the manpower.

In such cases, the insurance companies will refer to translation agency for their technical translation expertise. This is where WhizWordz is able to extend our services to those in need of language translation.

Top Translation Agency in Singapore

At WhizWordz International Pte Ltd, we present precise/contextual translations of high-volume documents quickly and cost-effectively so you can reach your global audience easily and on time delivery.

The general process of engaging insurance translation with WhizWordz is initiated when the client explains their requirements and timeline.

As insurance materials are highly confidential, we work with utmost cyber protection in ensuring that the documents can be safely shared to us.
Alternatively, clients could also work with other methods that suit them best when sharing their content.

Next, the team at WhizWordz will look through the documents and understand the texts, tonality and terms needed for translation in order to keep the meanings as closely as possible.

Even though insurance documents are usually written in a business-like manner, there may be other circumstances that require attention of all the parties involved (which in this case – the client, WhizWordz’s Project Manager and our insurance translator).

An excellent example is the differences when translating insurance policies and brochures, with the latter needing a more sophisticated approach for marketing purposes while the former would need a more professional touch to it.

Thus, understanding what is needed based on the materials given by the client is an important step in our Project Management process.

After the quotation and timeline have been confirmed by both parties, WhizWordz will then proceed with the insurance translation project.

Our network of insurance translators hold various proficiency in multiple industries, as well as a vast range of skills. They include perfect individuals such as specialist insurance translators for all common language pairings.

With experts on board to translate your insurance documents whenever required, you can always rest assured that proper and high quality translations is always being provided.

Dealing with Tricky Parts of Insurance Translation

Insurance translation can be quite tricky such that some terminologies might be unfamiliar to the general public.

Typically, after a job request has been completed, we seek our clients’ help to also read through the translated texts to ensure our translation is in line with what they are looking for.

Hence, it is important for both the client and WhizWordz to find a middle ground to ensure that the content is suitable for their target audience. This further explains why proofreading is such a critical step as part of a translation request and that it is an effort from both parties involved.
