Interpreter and translation work in the UK
Sources reviewed on 11 Sept 2026
Interpreting or translation?
Interpreting covers spoken or signed communication; translation covers written material. Search your service and language pair. Persian (Farsi) and Dari are distinct language searches.
Registration is not an assignment
Linguist registration may be for future demand. Check whether you are applying for a specific role or joining a freelance network. Confirm requirements, rates and engagement terms with the provider.
Home Office interpreting
The Home Office freelance interpreter panel recruits according to language demand. Current Farsi demand is unconfirmed. Check qualifications and eligibility in the official guidance.
Before applying
Check language and dialect, interpreting mode, location, qualifications and whether the work is employed or freelance.
