Information in English

Welcome to the Baltic Society of Translators and Interpreters (Bałtyckie Stowarzyszenie Tłumaczy, BST). Founded in Gdynia in 2006, BST was the first regional association of translators in Poland. Other Polish translators’ associations operate nationwide, while we focus on the Baltic region and its local professional community, and we welcome members from other parts of the country as well.

What we do

We bring together written translators and interpreters, including sworn translators, who work in 16 languages and more than a dozen fields such as law, medicine, engineering and finance. Our goals are to integrate the profession, develop shared standards, raise the standing of translators and interpreters, and help our members keep improving their skills through training sessions, workshops and meetings. We also take part in joint initiatives of the Polish Society of Sworn and Specialised Translators (TEPIS) and the Polish Translators Association (STP).

Looking for a translator or interpreter?

Our members are listed in the BST translator directory, where you can filter by language, type of translation, field of expertise and city. The directory is in Polish, but each profile contains the translator’s languages and direct contact details. Every BST member has accepted the BST Member Charter, which commits them to accuracy, confidentiality, continuous professional development and fair pricing.

Membership

Membership is open to practising translators and interpreters who accept the Articles of Association and the Member Charter. Members receive discounts on BST training, access to the members’ area with document templates and a list of unreliable clients, support from experienced colleagues and a profile in the directory. The membership declaration can be completed online on the membership page (in Polish). If you have any questions, please write to us in English.
