Our Interpretation Services in Ottawa

An interpretation company based in downtown Ottawa

Irvine Interpretation is headquartered at 294 Albert Street in downtown Ottawa. That puts our interpreters, technicians, and rental equipment within easy reach of both the Ontario and Quebec sides of the National Capital Region. Whether your event is at a government facility on Wellington Street, a conference centre in Gatineau, or a hotel ballroom in Kanata, our team and equipment come to you.

We have been serving Ottawa-Gatineau since 2015, and every event gets the same three things: accredited interpreters, professional equipment, and a technician who stays with you for the whole session.

Why a local Ottawa team matters

Being based in the National Capital Region means faster response times, no long-distance travel fees for interpreter and technician deployment, and a team that already understands the venues, government protocols, and bilingual expectations common to events here. When equipment needs a last-minute swap or a technician needs to arrive early for a site visit, our downtown office keeps that window short.

Bilingual by default

Ottawa-Gatineau is Canada's bilingual capital region, and our interpreters work in both English and French as a matter of course. Federal and provincial government clients in particular rely on us for interpretation that meets official-languages expectations without needing to explain the requirement from scratch.
