What is Included

What Does Our Spanish Sworn Translation Include?

Each translation is prepared by a Traductor Jurado -- a translator certified by the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs and listed on their official register. This is the standard required by Spanish authorities and is distinct from a general certified translation.

The completed translation includes the translator's signed declaration, their official stamp, and their certification number. This is typically what Spanish authorities need in order to accept the translation as valid.

All translations are from original English-language UK documents. We translate the full content of the document and do not omit any information.

Questions

Common Questions

Spanish public bodies generally require translations prepared by a Traductor Jurado -- a translator certified by the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. A standard certified translation, even from a professional agency, may not be accepted. We recommend confirming the exact requirement with the specific authority you are dealing with.

In many cases, Spanish authorities require both a sworn translation of the document and an apostille on the original. This is particularly common for civil registry submissions and residency applications. Requirements can vary, so we recommend checking with the receiving authority. Our parent service 1Apostille.org.uk can arrange the apostille alongside your translation.

Our standard turnaround is 1-2 working days from the date we receive your original document. If you also require an apostille, please allow additional time for that process.

Our sworn translation into Spanish is priced at 90 GBP per page. This applies to all document types we handle. There are no hidden fees.
