About Kawamura International

Specialized translation and localization, trusted by global enterprises for 40 years

Kawamura International launched in Tokyo in 1986 as a single language vendor specializing in Japanese. Today, we're a full-scale company spanning 4 regional offices, with over 1,000 linguists supporting full localization in 40+ languages.

That growth comes from combining deep translation experience with the technology to execute it correctly. Our in-house linguists, localization engineers, and development team work together on the kind of specialized content that generalist agencies often can't handle correctly, including sensitive areas like eDiscovery, due diligence, and M&A. We build a solution around each client's specific needs, whatever the budget, timeline, or subject matter, rather than offering one-size-fits-all service. Learn Our Philosophy
