The art of translation for prestige brands

In the luxury sector, words are as precious as materials. At Asiatis, we have cultivated the art of linguistic nuance, luxury translation services, and elegance for 25 years to support brand consistency.

Based in Paris, at the heart of the luxury ecosystem, our translators are more than linguists; they are authors who know how to convey the sensuality of a fragrance, the precision of a watch calibre, or the fluidity of a fine fabric.

The demand for the right word

"For our Asian campaign, the untranslatable original tagline was adapted through a 3-step transcreation process. The Chinese and Japanese results not only preserved the brand's spirit but strongly resonated with local engagement."

— Communications Director, Fine Jewellery Brand (Place Vendôme)

Frequently Asked Questions

What is your experience in the luxury sector?

For 25 years, Asiatis has supported haute couture, watchmaking, jewellery, and high perfumery brands. We understand that in luxury, you don't translate a text—you transpose an emotion. Our translators are specialized copywriters who master the codes of excellence, from Japanese wabi-sabi to French storytelling.

Do you offer transcreation services?

Certainly. For your campaigns, taglines, and product names, literal translation is out of the question. We practice transcreation (creative translation) to adapt your message to the target culture while preserving your brand's DNA. We often provide multiple options with back-translations and rationales for the word choices.

How do you ensure the confidentiality of new collections?

Discretion is our golden rule. NDAs available upon request (agency + translators). Secure servers in France. Capability to work on your secure platforms or via VPN. We have managed confidential global rollouts for leading brands without a single incident in 25 years.

Do you handle InDesign files and print materials?

Yes, our in-house DTP studio processes your native files (InDesign, Illustrator). We strictly adhere to your graphic and typographic guidelines. We deliver files prepared for review or publication, managing hyphenation and text expansion specific to each language.
