For short, urgent conversations in Kingston On Thames (a GP receptionist call, a doorstep statement, an emergency department triage), telephone Vietnamese interpreting is on demand and connects within minutes.

Video works well when the parties are in different places but eye contact still matters.

About Kingston On Thames

Kingston upon Thames is a royal borough in south-west London, and most of the work that reaches us here runs through its courts, hospital and university. Kingston Crown Court sits alongside the county court and the magistrates' court near the Guildhall, so serious trials and first hearings alike generate a steady need for interpreters. Kingston Hospital, run by the Kingston and Richmond NHS Foundation Trust, serves the borough and neighbouring Richmond, and its clinics often call for language support. Kingston University adds students and staff from well beyond the UK. The languages we are asked for reflect who lives here. New Malden, within the borough, holds the largest Korean community in Europe, so Korean comes up often, and there is a settled Sri Lankan Tamil community around the same streets. Firms and courts also come to us for the rarer languages other agencies struggle to supply.

About the Vietnamese language

Vietnamese is the official language of Vietnam and the most widely spoken Austroasiatic language, a tonal language written in the Latin-based quoc ngu alphabet. The Vietnamese community in Britain is well established, with the 2021 census recording around 37,000 ethnic Vietnamese in England and Wales and community estimates running higher, concentrated in London, particularly the boroughs of Lewisham, Southwark and Hackney, and in Birmingham and Manchester. Our Vietnamese translation work is mostly civil documents, birth, marriage and death certificates, for Home Office and UKVI immigration, settlement and asylum applications, together with court and tribunal papers and academic transcripts evaluated by UK ENIC for universities and professional registration, plus interpreting for the NHS and courts. Vietnamese has around 85 to 90 million native speakers worldwide.
