Many clients ask about the process for obtaining a sworn translation. Below you can find the steps to follow.

Firstly, you will need to send us copies of the documents to be translated, as the price and delivery date will vary based on the particulars of each document. 

You should not send the original documents, an image of them will suffice. However, it is recommended that you send a scanned image. The law requires that a copy of the original document be attached to the printed translation and a photograph would probably not produce the desired result, as it would be too dark. 

After reviewing the documents you want translated, we will send you a quote. This quote will include the price and an approximate delivery date. Acceptance of the quote implies acceptance of the terms and conditions specified in the relevant section of this website. 

The delivery date will be approximate. If you need your translation urgently, we do offer an express service with a guaranteed delivery date for digital copies (short documents are usually delivered within 24 hours). If you ordered an express service and the delivery date was not met, you will receive a refund.

If you wish to accept the quote and proceed with ordering the translation, you will need to make the payment, which will always be in advance. The translation will not be started until payment is received, so the delivery date could be affected in the case of delayed payments. 

Payment can be made by credit or debit card via the link provided in the quote sent to you. Once received, we will send you a simplified invoice showing the amount paid. If you need a full invoice, please send us your full tax details (name, address and ID No.).

The translation will always be done by a Sworn Translator appointed by the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation, which guarantees its official validity.

Regarding the delivery of the translation, you will receive a digital copy electronically signed, which is nowadays accepted by most authorities. You can also order a hard copy to be sent by post if needed. Hard copies are subject to an additional charge of 5% of the final price (with a minimum charge of 20 EUR) which includes non-urgent delivery within Spain.

We hope you have found all the information needed; however, if you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Additionaly, you can find more information in the terms and conditions, in the FAQ and on the prices page.

Thank you very much for your attention.
