This document specifies requirements and recommendations for the design of permanent booths for simultaneous interpreting in new or existing buildings. This document also ensures the usability and accessibility of booths for all interpreters. This document is to be used in conjunction with ISO 20109, which contains requirements and recommendations for the equipment necessary for simultaneous interpreting. For requirements and recommendations for permanent booths which do not have a direct view of the room in which a communicative event takes place, see ISO 17651-3.[1] [1] Under preparation. Stage at the time of publication: ISO/CD 17651-3-2:2024.

Abstract

Overview

ISO 17651-1:2024 - Simultaneous interpreting - Interpreters’ working environment - Part 1: Requirements and recommendations for permanent booths - specifies the design, usability and accessibility requirements for permanent interpreting booths with a direct view of the event room. It guides architects, venue planners and audiovisual integrators on building or retrofitting booths in new or existing facilities to support high-quality simultaneous interpreting.

Key topics and technical requirements

The standard addresses the full booth lifecycle and environment, including:

Location and siting
- Integration of booths into room layout, people flow and building accessibility (aligned with ISO 21542).
- Positioning away from disturbance sources to preserve speech intelligibility.
Design and construction
- General design requirements and recommended dimensions.
- Specifications for doors, windows and visibility to the event.
- Acoustics: sound insulation and absorption to reduce noise transmission between booth and room and between booths (references ISO 717‑1/2, ISO 16283 series).
- HVAC and thermal comfort considerations (air quality, temperature, humidity, and noise control; references ISO 7730).
- Provisions for cable ducts, language displays and limits on electromagnetic radiation.
Booth interior
- Ergonomics: work surfaces, seating and furniture (EN 1335 referenced).
- Lighting, colour choices and visual display placement for interpreters.
- Power, internet access and secure storage for documents/equipment.
- Additional requirements for signed language interpreting (sightlines, space).
Amenities and accessibility
- Requirements for interpreter toilets and interpreters’ rooms to support comfort and concentration.
- Emphasis on usability and accessibility for all interpreters.

Applications

ISO 17651-1 is intended for:

Designing permanent booths in conference centres, courts, parliaments, corporates and universities.
Retrofitting existing venues to improve interpreter working conditions and audio quality.
Specifying requirements for tender documents, building permits and AV installations.
Guiding acoustic consultants, HVAC engineers and AV integrators on interpreter-specific needs.

Who should use this standard

Architects and building designers
Venue and facilities managers
Acoustic and HVAC engineers
AV system integrators and technical production teams
Conference organizers and interpreting service providers
Accessibility consultants

ISO 21542 - Accessibility and usability of the built environment
ISO 717, ISO 16283, ISO 3382, ISO 7730, ISO 8995 series - acoustics, thermal comfort and lighting references
ISO 17651-3 - (under development) for booths without direct room view

Using ISO 17651-1:2024 helps ensure interpreter comfort, accessibility and technical performance-key to clear, reliable simultaneous interpreting and professional multilingual events.
