Our subtitles are formatted to meet international accessibility standards, including ADA and EAA requirements, and can be seamlessly integrated with other VoiceBox services such as audio description, BSL and live captioning.

What is subtitle translation?
Subtitle translation is the process of converting on-screen dialogue, narration and text into another language, creating timed subtitles that make your content accessible to international audiences.
What are the benefits of subtitle translation?
Subtitle translation expands your reach to global audiences, supports accessibility for non-native speakers, and helps your media meet international distribution requirements. It also boosts viewer engagement and retention, since audiences can follow along in their preferred language.
Do you provide SDH subtitles as part of translation?
Yes! We provide subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing (SDH), which include not only spoken dialogue but also sound effects, speaker IDs and music cues. These can be translated and localised for multilingual audiences.
Which file formats can you deliver subtitles in?
We can deliver subtitles in all common formats, including SRT, VTT, STL and burned-in captions.
We’ll provide the format that works best for your platform or distribution channel!
How accurate are your subtitle translations?
All translations are completed by native linguists and reviewed through our ISO-certified quality assurance process, making them highly accurate.
Do you provide subtitle translation for technical or specialist content?
Absolutely! We have translators with subject-matter expertise in industries like legal, medical, finance and engineering, so your subtitles remain accurate even with technical terminology.
How long does the subtitle translation process take?
Turnaround depends on the length of the video and number of languages required. We offer flexible options, including rapid turnaround, to meet tight deadlines.
Do subtitle translations help with SEO?
Yes! Subtitles make video content indexable by search engines, boosting visibility on platforms like YouTube and improving global discoverability.
