This sounds suspicious. Why a phone call? I would drop them.

The law in question is the Sarbanes-Oxley act. This is an American law, but it applies to us because our parent company, ___, is a publicly traded American corporation. They say.

Whether true or not they are the first and only American agency I've worked with who require this process.

Thanks.
I suppose the question may fall under Sarbanes-Oxley, a well-known law indeed. I would have expected that sort of question to be triggered by a minimum amount of invoicing, most likely well over what an individual translator would issue, though.

P.S. : In addition, the phone call may be recorded. I don't know UK Law WRT to recording phone calls. In the USA, that varies from state to state. For example, in NY, only one party to a phone call needs to be informed about the recording; in plain English, that means the other party may remain unaware that the call is recorded. In other states, both parties need to be made aware for the recording to be valid in court.
Such laws, of course, do not apply to law enforcement wiretappings.
