Planning your event
It is the official language of the Netherlands and has been an EU official language since 1958. The Nederlandse Taalunie also identifies it as an official language in Belgium and as Suriname’s sole official language.
Ask each delegation which translation it wants, separately from its country name. Delegates may request Dutch alongside other languages on the same event programme.
Selecting Nederlands leads to “Hoe wil je deze sessie volgen?” on a Dutch listener page. Luister means listen and Lees means read. The attendee’s chosen translation can therefore be followed as audio or text, with Dutch instructions for making that choice.
Dutch-speaking presenters can be translated into other supported languages, and attendees can receive Dutch translation of speech in other supported languages. Record the speakers’ and audience’s language needs separately when planning the programme.

How long after a sentence ends its finished translation appears.
Baian, on its production Live service.
Measured on Baian’s production Live service from 13 to 15 October 2026, from the end of each spoken sentence to the finished English line in our captured listener feed. Earlier words in a long sentence wait longer than this. Spoken audio arrives a little after the text and was not measured.
Estimated medians: the speaker’s words appear in their own language about 1.0 seconds after they are spoken, and the first translation covering a word about 2.4 seconds after it.
Estimated from our captured listener feed for the same 53 recordings. The capture is incomplete, so some early previews are missing, and previews can still change before the sentence is finished. Times are measured to the feed, not to a phone screen.
Median 2.69 seconds behind the speaker, across 180 speeches.
