Spanish Sworn Translator – Certified Translations for Spain

Why a Spanish Sworn Translator Matters

When you are preparing to move, invest, or study in Spain, one essential step is ensuring your documents are accepted by Spanish authorities. Standard translations are not enough. Spanish institutions require sworn translations, prepared by a translator who has official recognition from the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

A Spanish Sworn Translator, also called a traductor jurado, is not just a language professional but a legally empowered translator. Their seal and signature grant every translated document full legal validity in Spain. Without this, applications may be delayed or rejected.

At DocsBase Canada, we provide sworn Spanish translations that are guaranteed to meet the official requirements of consulates, government offices, and universities.

What Is a Spanish Sworn Translator?

A sworn translator is officially appointed by the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This appointment authorizes them to translate and certify documents so that the Spanish government, courts, and universities recognize them as authentic.

Each translation is stamped and signed, making it legally binding. This is very different from a regular certified translation in Canada, which may not be valid in Spain unless prepared by a sworn translator.

Essential for Spanish Golden Visas and Immigration

Spain’s Golden Visa program is one of the most popular residency pathways for Canadians and other non-EU citizens. It allows applicants to obtain residency by making a qualifying investment in Spanish real estate or business.

The application requires various official documents, such as:

• Criminal record checks

• Proof of investment or funds

• Marriage or birth certificates for family members

• Health insurance and medical certificates

All these documents must be submitted in Spanish, with a sworn translation. Using any other form of translation risks rejection.

The same applies for student visas, work permits, and family reunification applications. Spanish authorities require sworn translations for all supporting documents. DocsBase Canada ensures your paperwork is prepared correctly the first time, helping you avoid costly delays.

Beyond Immigration: Business, Legal, and Academic Needs

Sworn Spanish translation is not only useful for immigration. It is also essential in:

• Business: Incorporating a company in Spain, signing contracts, or registering patents.

• Legal matters: Court proceedings, powers of attorney, or property purchases.

• Academic recognition: Translating diplomas, transcripts, or professional licenses for Spanish universities or employers.

In all these cases, a sworn translation guarantees legal acceptance by Spanish institutions.
