Spanish is the second most common language in our order queue, and no two countries issue the same paperwork. A Spanish certificado literal de nacimiento, a Mexican acta de nacimiento and a Colombian registro civil all say "birth certificate" and all look completely different. Our Spanish translators know the regional formats, the stamps and the abbreviations, and every translation is certified in the format UKVI asks for: a full translation, a signed statement of accuracy and our contact details.
Yes. UKVI and the Home Office need a certified English translation of every Spanish-language document in your file, including bilingual ones where the English is only a summary. The translation must be complete and come with a statement of accuracy.
Spain's apostilled certificados are often bilingual, which tempts people to skip the translation. The English column on a Spanish birth certificate is a heading-level summary; the registration details, parents' names and marginal notes (the ones that record a later name change or a divorce) are Spanish only. Caseworkers read the whole document, so the whole document is translated.
Latin American documents add their own habits. Mexican actas carry a CURP and a folio; Colombian registros list the NUIP; Argentine partidas come with a provincial stamp that is itself part of the record. We keep every identifier exactly as printed and explain what it is in a translator's note where that helps.
All of them. We translate documents from Spain and every Spanish-speaking country in Latin America, including Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Venezuela, Ecuador and the Dominican Republic, at the same rate.
Regional vocabulary matters more than people expect. A Chilean carnet, a Colombian cédula and a Spanish DNI are the same kind of document with three different names; a Peruvian partida and a Spanish certificación are not quite the same thing. Our translators are matched to the country of origin so the English says what the document means, not what a dictionary suggests.
Spanish to English certified translation costs £15.59 per page, the same flat rate as every language pair. A one-page certificado is £15.59; a two-page acta de matrimonio is £31.18. Standard delivery is within 24 business hours.
There is no surcharge for Latin American documents, apostille pages or handwritten registry entries. If a page is very hard to read we will tell you before we start rather than guess, and the price does not change.
