What is a sworn French translation and when do you need one in Spain?

A sworn French translation is carried out by an accredited official translator, whose role is to guarantee the accuracy of the content and format of the original document. These translations include a stamp and signature that make them legally valid in Spain. There are several cases in which a sworn French translation is required, such as:

  • Notarial documents: Deeds, powers of attorney, wills.

Frequently Asked Questions – Sworn and Certified Translation in French

It is an official translation carried out by an authorised public translator who guarantees the accuracy of the text compared to the original document.

Mainly for official, legal and academic documents that must be submitted to French-speaking institutions.

It depends on the requirements of the receiving body. However, a sworn translation signed by a sworn translator from another country must undergo a signature legalisation process.
To avoid increased costs and delays, at BBLTranslation we have official translators from each country, so that the sworn translation is valid from the moment it is submitted.

The cost varies depending on the volume and type of document, but we offer competitive rates that are clear from the outset.

A sworn translation is officially recognised, while a certified translation may not be legally valid for certain procedures.

Documents such as birth certificates, academic qualifications, contracts and legal certificates commonly require it.

It can be delivered in either electronic or printed format, depending on your preference.
