General Guidelines

Permission may be granted to translate AHA material if the request meets these criteria:

• Translated materials are not to be sold or used in a commercial or for profit venture.
• The material may not be altered or adapted.
• After the translation has been completed, we will need a letter, on professional letterhead, from a physician or medical expert (other than the requester or an employee of the requester’s company) confirming that they are fluent in English and the translation language, and confirming that they have reviewed the translated material and the translation is accurate.

International Requests

Requests to translate and distribute AHA materials outside of the United States may take an additional 30 business days to process. Because copyright laws differ by country it may be cost prohibitive for the ·¬ÇÑÊÓƵ to grant this type of request.

• Print only--$100.00
