The Fédération Internationale des Traducteurs^[1] (English: International Federation of Translators) is an international federation of associations of translators, interpreters and terminologists working in areas as diverse as literary, scientific and technical, public service, court and legal settings, conference interpreting, media and diplomatic fields and academia.

FIT supports members and the profession at an international level, building community, visibility and a sustainable future for the profession. With more than 100 professional associations affiliated, FIT represents over 80,000 translators in 65 countries. The goal of the Federation is to promote professionalism in the disciplines which it represents. The organisation aims to improve conditions for the profession in all countries and to uphold translators' rights and freedom of expression.

FIT has consultative status with UNESCO, The United Nations and has close relationships with other UN organs such as the World Intellectual Property Organisation.^[2]
