Sworn translations are crucial for navigating legal, academic, and official procedures in Spain. Whether you're submitting documents to Spanish authorities or handling cross-border agreements, accuracy and certification are paramount.
At Traducciones Idiomatic, we specialize in providing sworn translations that meet all legal requirements while ensuring a seamless process for you. Let us guide you through the essentials of sworn translations in Spain.
Definition and Purpose
A sworn translation is a certified translation of a document performed by a sworn translator accredited by the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. These translations are legally valid and recognized by Spanish institutions and authorities.
When Do You Need a Sworn Translation?
Sworn translations are often required for:
Legal documents (contracts, court rulings).
Academic records (transcripts, diplomas).
Civil documents (birth, marriage, and death certificates).
Certified and Legally Binding
Every sworn translation in Spain must include the translator’s official seal and signature, confirming its authenticity and legal validity. Without these elements, the translation may be rejected by authorities.
Language Pairing and Accuracy
Sworn translations must precisely match the source document's meaning while adhering to linguistic and cultural nuances. At Traducciones Idiomatic, we ensure every translation is both accurate and contextually appropriate.
