Localisation

What Is Localisation?

Localisation is the process of adapting content for a specific market or region. It goes beyond translation. It accounts for language, culture, formatting, currency, date formats, legal requirements and local expectations.

A translated website may be grammatically correct but still feel foreign to a local audience. A localised website reads as if it was written for that market from the start.

At TTC, we localise websites, software, apps, marketing content and business documentation for companies operating in or expanding into new markets.

Translation vs Localisation

Translation vs Localisation: What Is the Difference?

The two terms are often used interchangeably. They are not the same thing.

Translation

Converting text from one language into another.

Focus

  • Accuracy of meaning
  • Correct terminology
  • Grammatical correctness
Example: A product manual translated word-for-word into French.

Localisation

Adapting content for a specific market.

Focus

  • Cultural relevance
  • Local formatting (dates, currency, units)
  • Idioms and tone
  • Legal and regulatory fit
  • User expectations
Example: A product manual adapted for the French market, with local examples, metric units and market-specific terminology.

Most international businesses need both. Translation handles the words. Localisation makes the content work in the target market.

Our Process

How Our Localisation Process Works

1

Send Your Content

Send us the source content — website files, app strings, documents or marketing assets. Tell us the target markets and languages.

2

Scope and Quote

We review the content, confirm the languages, scope and delivery format, and provide a fixed quote.

3

Translation and Adaptation

Qualified linguists translate the content. Localisation specialists then adapt it for the target market — including formatting, currency, units and cultural references.

4

Review and QA

A second reviewer checks consistency, terminology and formatting. For software and websites, we test the localised content in context.

5

Delivery

We deliver the localised content in the format you need — CMS-ready, app strings, design files or documents.

Quality Assurance

Quality Assurance on Every Localisation Project

Every localisation project follows a structured quality process.

  • Native-speaking linguists — translators work into their native language and understand the target market

  • Subject-matter expertise — matched to your sector and content type

  • Localisation review — formatting, currency, units, dates and cultural references checked for each market

  • Terminology consistency — glossaries and style guides applied across all content

  • In-context testing — websites and software tested in the target environment where possible

  • ISO 9001 and ISO 17100 — our processes follow recognised translation and localisation quality standards

Help & Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Translation converts text from one language into another. Localisation adapts content for a specific market, including culture, formatting, currency, units and local expectations. Localisation is broader and is usually needed for customer-facing content.

If your content is internal or for reference, translation may be enough. If it is customer-facing — websites, apps, marketing, e-commerce — localisation is usually necessary to make it work in the target market.

It depends on the volume of content, the number of languages and the complexity. A single landing page may take a few days. A full website or app localisation may take several weeks. We confirm timelines when we scope the project.

Pricing depends on the content type, volume, number of target languages and any technical requirements. We provide a fixed quote after reviewing your content.
