What is a sworn translation?
The sworn or official translation service consists of a translation with the signature and seal of a professional accredited as a sworn translator. In the case of Spain, the professional is recognized by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation. This means that the sworn translation certifies that it is a true copy of the original document provided by an accredited translator-interpreter.
What is the difference between a sworn and a professional translation?
A sworn translation is an official document that is signed, stamped, dated and certified by the professional translator, which distinguishes it from a professional translation. In addition, the sworn translation reflects and describes all the elements of the original document, e.g. stamps, signatures, logos, etc.
At Agency for Words we make sure that our native translators understand and master the text to be translated, as well as the legal terms, in order to provide accurate translations of the original documents.
