Frequently Asked Questions

What is H5P Translate?

H5P Translate is a web service that translates H5P interactive content files into different languages. It preserves all interactive elements, formatting, and structure. Only the text gets translated.

How do I translate an H5P file?

Upload your .h5p file, select the target language, and click translate. Your translated file will be ready to download in under a minute.

Which H5P content types are supported?

H5P Translate supports all H5P content types, including:

The translator automatically detects and translates all text fields in any H5P package, so even content types not listed here will work.

How many languages are supported?

We support over 70 languages, including major world languages like Spanish, French, German, Chinese, Arabic, Japanese, and Korean, plus many regional variants and beta languages. See the full list on our supported languages page.

How much does it cost?

H5P Translate uses a pay-as-you-go credit system. You top up credits and spend them based on the size of each translation. Larger files use more credits, smaller files use less. There are no subscriptions or monthly fees. The entry-level top-up is ideal for light usage.

What happens to my uploaded files?

Your files are processed and then automatically deleted from our servers within one hour. We do not store or access your file contents. Only metadata like filenames and timestamps is retained for your translation history.

Are my interactive elements preserved during translation?

Yes. H5P Translate only translates text content. All interactive elements, media, structure, and formatting remain exactly as they are in the original file.

What if a translation fails?

If a translation fails for any reason, your credits are automatically refunded. You will never be charged for a failed translation.
