Even if the actual appointment is shorter, interpreters will be paid for 2 hours. --- #### Video Remote Interpreting (VRI) Minimum times for VRI are as follows: - **Bookings 0 - 90 minutes** are charged at a **1.5-hour minimum** - **Bookings over 90 minutes** are charged in **15-minute increments** --- These minimums are automatically applied during the booking and invoice process, so you don’t need to calculate them manually.   If you have questions about how this applies to a particular booking, please reach out to our team via the app chat—we’re always happy to help.
