Chinese patent specification translation
The patent specification (专利说明书) — abstract, claims and description — explains what the invention does. For EB-1A and NIW, the first page, abstract and claims are usually translated so an officer can see the technical problem solved; full-text scope is agreed first. At Smartlink Translation (zhityun.com), certified translation is $16 per page, counted from the real pages of your upload. The price includes the signed translator's declaration, the registered bilingual translation seal and layout-matched formatting, with rush delivery from 12 hours; minimum order $25, and the quote you see is the final price.
