Direction & readers
Specify Portuguese into Chinese or the reverse. Identify the Chinese script, country or region, intended readers and approver.
Europe
Chinese ⇄ Portuguese
translation
Portuguese work is dominated by Brazil — infrastructure, energy and manufacturing programmes where Chinese contractors deliver documentation into the Brazilian market.
Start with Simplified Chinese; change the script and market in your inquiry.

What this pair actually demands
Every language pair has its own failure modes. These are the ones that decide whether a Portuguese deliverable is usable.
01
Brazil and Portugal are not interchangeable
Vocabulary, spelling and register differ enough that using the wrong variant is visible to a reader immediately. We treat them as separate targets.
02
Technical and regulatory conventions
Brazilian technical documentation follows its own conventions for units, safety wording and certification references. These are not translation decisions; they are compliance decisions.
03
Expansion against Chinese source
Portuguese runs long. Anything with a fixed field width — forms, labels, equipment plates — needs to be checked after translation rather than before.
Plan both sides of the language pair
A clear brief connects source comprehension, target-language writing and specialist review. Confirm the team and review scope for your document type rather than relying on location or native-language status alone.
Into Chinese
Confirm the Chinese script and market, approved terms, intended readers and the review level needed for release.
Out of Chinese
Clarify source-specific terms and references, then agree Portuguese target-language review and the delivery format. Native-speaker production or review follows the L3/L4 scope.
