Find a translator

Translators are excellent literary ambassadors, and the quality of their translations is the key to the success of a translated book. That's why Flanders Literature gives you access to a database of accredited literary translators, which we share with our colleagues at the Dutch Foundation for LiteratureIf you cannot find a particular translator here, please consult our team to learn whether the translator in question has been accredited. Not all accredited translators have agreed to a profile on this website. We are always happy to provide more information or tailored advice on the translators as well.
