Liaison interpreting is one of the most used types of interpreting, and plays a vital role in multi-language business communication in situations in which direct and accurate understanding between the two business partners is necessary – in general meetings, project meetings, customer meetings, or negotiations between potential business partners.
Liaison interpreting means that after every question, answer, or statement, the interpreters translate into the other language. They make sure that each side is understood correctly and that all cultural nuances and language subtleties are conveyed correctly. This technique guarantees effective and direct communication, which is indispensable for successful international business negotiations.

A significant aspect of liaison interpreting is the time needed to translate into the other language after every question, answer, or statement. Therefore, it is essential to take into account that you need twice as much time when scheduling the meeting or negotiations. This guarantees that there is sufficient time for accurate and comprehensive communication without interrupting the flow of conversation.
