& Satisfactions
Access Virtual, Face-to-Face Visual Communication Through VRI Solutions
Our Video Remote Interpreting Services connect you with a qualified interpreter over a live video call. The participants on this call can see and hear each other in real-time, without being physically present on-site. Similar to telephonic interpretation, this is also an on-demand language support, but with the extra advantage of face-to-face, visual communication.
No matter which city or country you are in, our VRI services give you the privilege of uninterrupted virtual communication with complete clarity and understanding through visual context. Ideal for situations when visual cues like facial expressions and body language are more important to build trust than mere verbal exchange.
From facilitating sensitive interactions involving complex information to conversations needing Auslan (Australian Sign Language) for a deaf audience, our expert video remote interpreters have experience working in various environments where in-person interpreting is unavailable.
For over a decade, our team has served in more than 10 sectors, including corporate, healthcare, government, legal, and court settings, as well as mining sites and remote-area locations. Our service also covers NDIS funding, Deafblind support, and after-hours emergency. Contact us to get started!

Frequently Asked Questions on Video Interpreting Services
1. What is a video remote interpreting service?
A Video Remote Interpreting (VRI) service connects individuals who have communication barriers with a live, off-site interpreter via high-quality video and audio. It enables live interpreting of spoken or signed languages with regular devices such as a computer, tablet, or smartphone.
2. Do I need special equipment for video remote interpreting?
No special or costly equipment is required to use VRI. These sessions work well with most standard equipment, such as laptops, tablets, or smartphones. All you’ll need is a working webcam, a microphone and a high-speed internet connection. In the best of circumstances, have good lighting in the room so the interpreter can see your facial expressions and lip movements.
3. Do you offer a cancellation policy for VRI?
Yes! We do have a cancellation policy for pre-scheduled VRI sessions. Make sure you request cancellation at least 60 minutes before the scheduled time to avoid paying charges.
4. Do you have a minimum booking duration for VRI?
Our minimum booking duration for VRI is 30 minutes.
5. What are the terms of the after-hours windows for VRI booking?
Bookings that fall beyond 8:00 am to 6:00 pm AEST/AEDT, Monday to Friday, are considered after-hours. The rates for after-hour bookings on weekends and on public holidays are subject to surcharges. The prices are based on urgency, language requirements, and the nature of the session.
6. What are your GST terms?
The prices quoted for our services are GST-included. GST is non-refundable on cancellations.
7. How do video remote interpreting services work?
Over the live video conference, the interpreter serves as a mediator, facilitating three-way communication. They interpret back and forth as the conversation between the two parties unfolds. They listen to the spoken word or observe the hand sign and immediately pass on the meaning to the other.
8. What is the Auslan VRI service?
Auslan VRI (Video Remote Interpreting) is a service that enables a Deaf or hard-of-hearing person to communicate with a hearing person using a live video link. There is an Auslan (Australian Sign Language) interpreter who is qualified and appears on screen to facilitate communication in real time between both parties.
9. When should I use video remote interpreting services?
VRI is ideal for complex or sensitive conversations where visual cues matter — informed consent discussions, cross-examinations, and business negotiations, for example. It is the best option for medical consultations and legal hearings. It is also the only distance option that is appropriate for Auslan (Sign Language) users who need a visual connection.
10. How fast can I get a remote video interpreter?
At AustralianTranslationServices, you can connect with a remote video interpreter within minutes in on-demand sessions.
11. How to access VRI services?
Our VRI services are available in many formats to fit your workflow. We offer support for desktop and mobile devices through the use of common web browsers (Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, etc.) and integrate seamlessly with EHR systems and telehealth platforms. Our interpreters can also attend your meetings through virtual meeting platforms such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet.
12. When should you use VRI instead of telephone interpreting?
Use VRI when the visual context is essential in order to avoid misunderstandings. Unlike phone interpreting, video enables the interpreter to read non-verbal cues, which is essential for healthcare and legal professions. VRI will give the conversation a more “human” tone, and works much better for longer or technical sessions when attention is paramount.
