About Croatia - Translation Service

Croatian - English Translation Service

WHAT DO WE DO?

We provide Croatian-English, English Croatian language translations/proofreading services for any business or private individual wherever the best representation is needed. Aside from translations we can also provide graphic design and prepress services for print.
FOR WHOM?
We can provide translations for any purpose from simple tourist texts to whole books (we recently completed the Croatian to English translation of the book ‘A Short History of Rijeka’ by Igor Žic)
We are also involved in several other academic projects for universities and faculties around Europe.

WHY US?

We are a husband and wife team, English/Croat, which has many years’ experience in the media of television, tourism, writing and graphic design.  Unlike many other online translation services we are not part of a large company who has string of freelancer translators who are only working in their spare time. We deal with the work and customers ourselves. Therefore we provide a personal service, tending to exact needs.

Well St. Vid is the patron saint of Rijeka, ‘vid’ also means sight and agents - well we liked the idea of being ‘agents’ (we are big fans of James Bond!) Vida is also the name of Tea’s mother
