The use of freelance translators and proofreaders by the Directorate-General for Translation is very significant in view of the workload and available resources.
The amount of translation assigned to freelance translators is between 20% and 25% of the total volume. In respect of proofreading, that percentage is approximately 25%.
The Court of Justice concludes with selected persons one-year framework contracts which are renewable three times. These contracts result from negotiated procedures after publication in the Official Journal of contract notices for certain language combinations. Proofreading is also the subject of contract notices.
Any person who wishes, on a freelance basis, to undertake translations for the language combinations indicated (see, as appropriate, Annex B to each notice) or proofreading must lodge a request to participate in the corresponding negotiated procedure, using the specific registration form.
The contract notices, which alone are authentic, are accessible below :

For the translation contracts, requests to participate must be sent to the address specified in the contract notice relating to the candidate's target language.
The time-limit for receipt of requests to participate is also specified in each notice. Nevertheless, as regards permanent lots (language combinations) for legal translation, the contracts remain open in order to allow new operators to enter at any time. Requests to participate submitted after the time-limit may therefore be evaluated, provided that the maximum number of contractors for the lot has not been reached.
The mandatory registration form to which those notices refer is accessible below in Word and PDF formats.
Candidates are requested to fill it out in the target language of the notice (translation) or in the language corresponding to the lot (proofreading).
