About 50%, which still makes for a pretty international mix, also in terms of doing the associated accounting, with customers more recently coming from, for example, the Netherlands, Denmark, Finland, Austria, Switzerland, France, the UK, Spain, Portugal, Romania, the U.S., Hong Kong, Thailand. Previous orders came from Singapore, Australia, Malta, Croatia, Sweden, Hungary, Turkey, Italy and Canada.

I work with one university in Peru, but the bureaucracy involved in getting paid is making me think of giving them up. All my other clients (all university-based) are in Spain, where I live. | | | Gianni Pastore Włochy Local time: 07:30 Członek ProZ.com od 2007 angielski > włoski 100% Outside | Aug 16, 2023 |

Almost all my clients are international organizations based in the US, but their documents come from all over the world.

My biggest clients are abroad, which is reflected in the 4-digit invoices I've sent to several of them in this year, while most Dutch agency clients send me only smaller projects and probably prefer to outsource bigger ones to cheaper translators. Almost half of my Dutch turnover is based on one direct client. | | | Stron w wątku: [1 2] > | To report site rules violations or get help, contact a site moderator: You can also contact site staff by submitting a support request » Poll: What percentage of your clients are based outside of the country where you reside?
