A birth certificate, notarial deeds, court judgments, tax certificates and fiscal documents… Do you urgently need official documents translated?
It is not always easy to find a translation service of this kind, still less when the document in question is needed urgently. That is why today we want to explain a few very important points about translating official documents.
What are official documents?
Any public document intended for administrative or judicial proceedings. Official documents are those required or issued by public authorities, official bodies and also academic institutions and boards.
And what about an official translation?
This translation is carried out by sworn translators and interpreters, who have been appointed by the Spanish Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores y Cooperación (Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation), and also by foreign associates, certified by a translator who is a native of the country in question in line with that country’s requirements. At Alos Idiomas we offer sworn translation services, as well as other types of translation.
In practice, which documents need an official translation?
As we said at the start: a birth certificate, notarial deeds, court judgments, tax certificates and fiscal documents, academic transcripts, death certificates, wills, family record books, passports, driving licences, contracts, medical reports, judgments and court decisions… As you can see, there are a great many documents that require an official translation. When we want to take up a job abroad, we will probably be asked for one or more documents of this kind. It is important to bear that firmly in mind before you travel and to know which documents you are going to need, because doing it once you are in the destination country makes the process far harder and more tedious.
