Vertaalbureau A. Günther was established thirty years ago by experienced translator and interpreter Annette Günther. Backed by a degree in German, French, English, and Spanish, and a successful corporate career at organisations such as Mercedes Benz; the Dutch Employees Insurance Agency (GAK, now UWV); and the Dutch Railways, Annette made the decision to start her own business. The agency has grown into a flourishing and highly professional company, serving a varied clientele. Our main aim is simple: to provide the highest possible quality translations at a fair price.
Vertaalbureau A. Günther only uses professional translators who excel in both the source and target languages, and possess expertise in the specific field or subject matter of the text. We have a team of around ten translators who meet these stringent criteria.
Vertaalbureau A. Günther normally has texts translated by native speakers of the target language in question. If that is not possible, the translations are always checked by a native speaker.
Vertaalbureau A. Günther believes in the human touch. We don’t have a huge office building with hundreds of computers and countless employees – and we want to keep it that way. We simply offer our clients competitive pricing and a personalized approach. To us, the customer is always more than just a number.
Because two pairs of eyes will always pick up more than one, every translation is checked by a second professional translator with the appropriate linguistic and/or technical skills. This means we always deliver quality translations that you can trust.
Vertaalbureau A. Günther has a diverse clientele: from large organisations like the Dutch Railways and public transport operator GVB, for whom the agency translates complex technical texts, contracts and tenders from German or into English, to private individuals who need certified translations of birth certificates and diplomas or, in one case, the owner of a beautiful new summer house, who wanted their website translating into German and English to attract foreign holidaymakers.
