Simultaani- eli samanaikaistulkkauksessa tulkki tulkkaa samaan aikaan kun vastaanottaa viestiä. Kun kuuleva henkilö puhuu, tulkki viittoo yhtä aikaa. Kun viittomakielinen viittoo, tulkki puhuu eli spiikkaa samanaikaisesti. Simultaanitulkkaus on erittäin haastavaa ja se vaatii taitoa ja keskittymistä. On tutkittu, että noin 15-20 minuutin tulkkauksen jälkeen virheiden määrä kasvaa ja tulkkauksen laatu kärsii.
