Prices according to JVEG - Judicial Remuneration and Compensation Act
Basis for price calculation
The German Judicial Remuneration and Compensation Act (Justizvergütungs- und -entschädigungsgesetz – JVEG) applies to the calculation of fees for translations.
The cost of translations is charged according to the volume of the text to be translated. A standard line (NZ) consists of 55 characters (including spaces). Commenced lines are accounted for as whole lines. Prices vary as follows:
| JVEG - simple | JVEG - aggravated | |
|---|---|---|
| editable | 1.80 € plus VAT (= 2.14 € gross) per NZ | 1.95 € plus VAT (= 2.32 € gross) per NZ |
| non-editable | 1.95 € plus VAT (= 2.32 € gross) per NZ | 2.10 € plus VAT (= 2.50 € gross) per NZ |
All prices plus the statutory value added tax of currently 19 %.
Section 14 JVEG allows authorities and courts to conclude framework agreements that deviate from the above hourly and line rates under certain conditions.
