Email signatures for translators
A translation buyer needs your language direction before deciding whether to send a brief. State the source and target languages plus a useful specialism, and describe any certification without implying it covers every document or jurisdiction.
Fictional examples. Replace sample credentials and licence numbers with your own verified details.
