I had to use an "official" translator 4 years ago. She was somehow tied in with the licensing bureau as they are the ones who recommended her and I think they even had a fee included in the cost to hire her. This was Nanjing 4 years ago so no idea if this is valid for your situation. It worked well for me.
Hang in there either way and you will get there.DT

The problem is that everywhere in China acts like mini empires/kingdo(O)ms. There is no one solution fits all scenario. Welcome to TIC. As for being able to go elsewhere that might have the test in English or allow the use of a "translator" - no so easy. You need to show proof of residence i.e. register with the local PSB etc. So if you can arrange that then you'd be able to give it a go...
I'd head some place that has been covered in this thread that very recently either provided the text in English, or allowed the use of a "translator" - and get yourself registered with the PSB there by showing proof of rental agreement etc.

what visa are you on? i hear they will only give out a license if your on a Z visa. (work visa, not a business visa)
just because something is possibly possible, does not follow that is it essentially essential.

06-05-2013, 01:21 AMThe English-language system seems to be fully implemented here in Shanghai. Yesterday I saw an expat thumbing through a thick volume that contained the entire question bank, including the new situational questions, entirely in English. He said it cost him 500 yuan; I didn't ask where he bought it.
Alas, as others have noted, China is a nation of little city fiefdoms, and if your little fiefdom does not have many expats and is not feeling the pressure to implement the system, I'm guessing they probably won't until Beijing 1) mandates this and 2) meaningfully enforces the mandate. There's probably merit in rattling your local cage, and tell them that the there are nationwide standard test preparation and testing materials available in English and other languages for foreigners.
Good luck.
