English-Malay Translation Services

Malay (or Malaysian) is the official language of four Asian nations: Malaysia, Indonesia (where it is known as Indonesian), Singapore, and the Sultanate of Brunei. When both Indonesian and Malay are taken into account, the Malay language is spoken by approximately 180 million people.

It must be noted that the Malay version spoken in Brunei is not generally understood by other Malay speakers. Also, while Malay is written using the Latin alphabet in Malaysia, Indonesia, and Singapore, Brunei uses both the Latin and the Arabic scripts. This is particularly relevant to foreign businesses considering venturing into the Bruneian economy, since the Sultanate is the world’s fifth richest nation thanks to its oil-based economy, which accounts for almost 90 per cent of Brunei’s GDP. Foreign investment is also being heavily promoted.

Our Malay translation department is made up of professional and experienced translators, revisers, reviewers, proofreaders, project managers, voice actors, software localisers, and many other experts in Malay language and culture. Our ISO 17100 compliant Malay translations are backed up by a triple quality guarantee, as we hold international quality certifications (ISO 9001 and ISO 17100), in addition to a strict system of internal quality checks.
