Sworn translations of death certificates and scattering of ashes in the Mediterranean Sea

BBLTranslation

At our translation agency, we specialise in offering sworn translation services and the translation of death certificates. In addition, we have the unique ability to assist in the organisation of the scattering of ashes in the Mediterranean Sea, specifically in the areas of Spain, Barcelona and Cambrils, in compliance with all current maritime regulations.

Sworn translations and death certificates

Sworn translation is a process that requires precision and compliance with strict legal regulations. Our sworn translators are certified by the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which guarantees the validity and authenticity of the translated documents. If the deceased is a citizen of another country, we also swear in accordance with theregulations of that country. Among other languages, we translate death certificates from Spanish into English, death certificates from Spanish into Italian, death certificates into German and death certificates into French.

  • Sworn translations: These translations are required for official documents to be submitted to authorities and official bodies.
  • Death certificates: We understand the delicacy and importance of these documents, and we ensure that the translations are accurate and respectful, facilitating the necessary paperwork for our clients in difficult times.

Organisation of scattering ashes in the Mediterranean Sea

In addition to our translation services, we offer the organisation of the  scattering of ashes at sea, an increasingly popular option for honouring the memory of loved ones. This process is carried out in strict compliance with Spanish and European maritime regulations, guaranteeing respect for the environment and the legality of the act.

Why scatter ashes in the Mediterranean Sea?

Pouring ashes into the Mediterranean Sea is a deeply meaningful practice that symbolises eternal union with nature and the repose of the soul of the deceased. The sea, with its vastness and serenity, offers a final resting place that is both beautiful and eternal. For many people, this act represents:

  • Freedom and peace: The sea is seen as a symbol of freedom and peace, providing a serene and free rest for the soul of the deceased.
  • Union with nature: Pouring the ashes into the sea symbolises a return to nature, an eternal connection with the cycle of life.
  • Spiritual connection: Many cultures and beliefs regard the sea as a sacred and spiritual place, ideal for the final resting place of loved ones.

Maritime regulations for ash discharges

In order to carry out the scattering of ash at sea, we follow these essential steps in accordance with maritime regulations:

  1. Permits and authorisations: We help you to manage all the necessary authorisations with the competent maritime authorities, ensuring that each discharge is legal and respectful.
  2. Site selection: We help you to choose authorised and suitable sites in the Mediterranean Sea, specifically in the areas of Barcelona and Cambrils, to carry out the scattering.
  3. Environmental compliance: We help you choose to ensure that all discharges are carried out according to environmental standards, avoiding any negative impact on the marine ecosystem.
  4. Personalised ceremony: We offer the possibility of carrying out personalised ceremonies, respecting the beliefs and wishes of each family, so that this act is meaningful and memorable.
