Birth Certificate Translation Spanish to English

Yes, and it is worth asking for rather than assuming.

A customer applying for citizenship sent us two files — her Spanish birth certificate and a Hague Apostille that was already in English — and asked for the complete set certified as one package. That is exactly how we do it.

The birth certificate translation and the apostille page are bound together under a single certification, so nothing arrives loose or looks like it came from two different places.

Yes. Give us the address when you order and the signed copy goes directly there instead of to you.

One parent came to us after the Passport Office wrote asking for the birth certificate to be sent again with a translation. We posted it to the office and emailed him the PDF the same day, so he was not stuck forwarding paperwork himself.

This works for a register office, a council or your solicitor too. We post anywhere in the UK, and to Spain if you have not moved back yet.

We can give you a rough figure, but not a fixed one, and it is worth understanding why.

A single clean printed birth certificate and a forty-year-old one covered in registry stamps are very different pieces of work. We cannot price what we cannot see.

Sending the file is also how we catch problems before you pay — the short certificate, a missing page, a notary you do not need. If privacy is the concern, your birth certificate is opened only by the translator and the person checking their work.

It changes our advice, not the price, so pick the closest one and tell us the rest in the message box.

People mix these up constantly. One father selected HM Passport Office for his child's Spanish birth certificate while his purpose said visa application, and ticked notarisation as well. Neither was quite right, and none of it was his fault — the names are genuinely confusing.

Just write one line saying who asked for the birth certificate. A passport office, a council, a registrar, the Home Office. We will work out the rest.

Yes, and it is cheaper and safer done together. A Spanish file rarely holds the birth certificate alone.

• Marriage certificates from a Spanish registry
• Divorce decrees and Spanish court judgments
• Libro de Familia pages
• NIE and TIE cards
• Certificado de empadronamiento

One customer sent us four Spanish documents running to nine pages for a single Home Office file. Handled by one translator, every name, date and place is written the same way across all of them — which matters more than the saving, because a bundle that contradicts itself is what a caseworker notices.

Yes. Your finished translation stays on our system, so the Spanish birth certificate itself never has to be dug out twice.

This comes up more than people expect. One customer ordered for a student visa and came back to us months later when a second office wanted its own signed set.

One email is enough. We reissue the PDF or post a fresh signed copy without you sending the certificate again.

We tell you, and nothing is charged.

It happens regularly. One parent uploaded only the apostille page, which proves the birth certificate is genuine but is not the certificate itself. Others send the short version without realising Spain issues two.

A person reads what you send before any price is given. If it is the wrong file, or a page is missing, you hear about it at that point rather than after your application has come back.
