Dear colleagues,
I would like to know if any of you have done any translations or interpretations for any company located in Japan.
I did a Spanish-English interpretation for a company from this country and I think they are trying to avoid paying me or they are just trying to get a big discount for my interpreter services.
I'm not very familiar with the Japanese laws. Maybe you can recommend me to a website or government agency where I can find information... See more Dear colleagues,

All your suggestions and comments are welcome.
Please let me know.

| No bad experiences yet | Dec 1, 2011 |
As a Japanese - English translator, currently all of the companies I work with regularly are located in Japan. In my (admittedly very limited) experience, I've not yet had any trouble with any of them yet. Although, one company does tend to like to postpone payment for certain jobs each month, usually big ones that come at the end of a billing cycle, but they have always paid.
Why do you think they might be trying to avoid paying you?

We have been doing translation and interpreting jobs since almost fifteen years in this country and never had a single payment problem, except for very few delays usually caused by small agencies' poor accounting management.
I did a Spanish-English interpretation for a company from this country and I think they are trying to avoid paying me or they are just trying to get a big discount for my interpreter services.
Provided you have concrete reasons to believe that they are trying to avoid paying you, did you ask them the reason? There was any feedback from the end user about your interpreting service?
I'm not very familiar with the Japanese laws. Maybe you can recommend me to a website or government agency where I can find information about dishonest Japanese companies.
I doubt that such information exists, neither officially nor unofficially. If you are sure that you provided an impeccable interpreting service, your best bet would be entering a comment in the BB and wait for their reaction.

I have been working with a Japanese company without any problems regarding payment. My customer is extremely polite, helpful and easy to work with.

I think you are having problems with a very "active" defaulter, right? If I'm correct, both you and I know what I'm referring to. Payment issues with Japanese companies are very rare (there's still something left of that old samurai code of honor), but this particular company is a notable exception.

If they're based in Osaka, I think I know which company you're referring to. Their BB rating is so bad that any translator that works for them is practically asking for it at this point.

I would like to know what Japanese government agencies keep records of Japanese companies complaints done by consumers or clients.
In The United States we have government agencies that keep these records. Some of them are Better Business Bureau, Department of Consumer Affairs and The Department of Labor of different states of The United States.

"Role of BBB

I personally don't know any organization in Japan that would provide the same role as the BBB in the US.
But as others already pointed out in other threads, the BBB is focusing on business to consumer issues, and an outsourcer-freelancer transaction is a business to business type of transaction, which is outside of their scope of operation.
It is still unclear to me whether the company you are talking about a Japanese company or a US company. Once you said it was a Japanese company, in the other posting you said "it is based in the US". But you are still looking for "blacklists" in Japan. It is confusing. The important thing is the registered address of the company's headquarters (as it is likely to be in the same country where the business was incorporated).
Once it is clear whether it is a US or Japanese company, you may want to change the title of this thread, although I suspect the timeframe for editing has passed, and now you need to ask a moderator to edit the title for you.

The BBB is most definitely not a government agency.
BTW, it costs $500 - $600 to register your business with them.
