Swahili FAQ

Answers about Swahili questions.

The ones we hear most often, answered by our dispatch and project-management teams.

Can't find it here?

01Are your Swahili interpreters certified?

Yes. Court-certified and medically credentialed Swahili interpreters are assigned to legal and clinical matters — Federal Court Interpreter Certification, state court rosters, CCHI / NBCMI for medical. For community, educational and corporate settings we assign professionally trained interpreters matched to the subject.

02Do you cover all Swahili dialects?

Kenyan Swahili (with heavier English loan), Tanzanian standard Swahili and Congolese Swahili diverge meaningfully. We disclose and match at booking.

03What Swahili interpretation settings do you cover most often?

Our highest-volume Swahili interpretation settings are state and federal courts, hospitals and clinics, USCIS interviews, depositions, school IEP meetings and corporate training.

04Do you support HIPAA-compliant video for Swahili?

Yes. Clinical VRI sessions run on a HIPAA-aligned platform with a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) on file, encrypted media, audit logs and no retained recordings.
