Hokkien Language Services in the UK

About Our Hokkien Services

Hokkien is a Southern Min language from Fujian, and its speakers in Britain belong to the Chinese community of just over 500,000 recorded at the 2021 census, many with family ties to Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore or the Philippines where Hokkien is widely spoken. Our Hokkien work is mostly civil documentation for Home Office and UKVI immigration, settlement and citizenship cases, birth and marriage certificates, and academic transcripts assessed by UK ENIC, together with interpreting at NHS clinics, solicitor meetings and court hearings. Hokkien is separate from Mandarin and Cantonese and not mutually intelligible with either, so the exact variety matters. Tens of millions of people speak Hokkien across southern China, Taiwan and South East Asia.

Prism Linguistics provides Hokkien translation, interpreting and transcription across the UK in 300+ languages. Whether you need a certified document for the Home Office, a court interpreter, an NHS appointment or a business meeting, our vetted native-speaker linguists are ready to help.
