Interpreting

Tokyo-Based Professional Interpreting Services

Simultaneous & Consecutive Interpreting

At YUZEN Translation, we provide professional interpreting services to support clear, accurate communication in international business, technical, and maritime environments.  Our interpreters are experienced in both simultaneous interpreting and consecutive interpreting, ensuring reliable communication in high-stakes settings where precision matters.

We work with clients across shipping, energy, engineering, manufacturing, legal, and public-sector fields, delivering interpreting services that are linguistically accurate, culturally appropriate, and context-aware.

Types of Interpreting We Provide

Simultaneous Interpreting

Simultaneous interpreting is ideal for large-scale or time-sensitive events where communication must flow without interruption. The interpreter listens and speaks almost at the same time as the source speaker, usually with the support of interpretation equipment.

Typical use cases include:

• International conferences and symposiums

• Maritime and shipping conferences

• Technical seminars and panel discussions

• Government or regulatory briefings

• Online and hybrid events (remote simultaneous interpreting)

Consecutive Interpreting

In consecutive interpreting, the speaker pauses to allow the interpreter to convey the message accurately. This method is particularly effective for meetings requiring interaction, clarification, and precision.

Typical use cases include:

• Business meetings and negotiations

• Technical briefings and training sessions

• Shipyard meetings and inspections

• Legal consultations and interviews

• Factory visits and site tours

Conference Interpreting Expertise

YUZEN Translation specialises in conference interpreting, supporting multilingual events where accuracy, confidentiality, and professional delivery are essential. Our interpreters are accustomed to working with complex subject matter, including technical specifications, regulatory language, and industry-specific terminology.

We can support:

• On-site conferences

• Hybrid events

• Fully remote conferences

• Multilingual panels and Q&A sessions

• Booth presentation support (e.g. Tokyo Big Sight - Tokyo International Exhibition Center)

Industry-Focused Interpreting

Unlike general interpreting providers, we place strong emphasis on domain expertise. 

Our interpreters are familiar with the terminology and communication standards used in:

• Maritime and shipping

• Energy and environmental sectors

• Engineering and manufacturing

• Legal and compliance contexts

• Corporate and executive communications

• Personal (e.g. help at a bank or city office)

This ensures messages are not only translated correctly, but interpreted accurately in context.
