Spanish Translation Services

DHCTranslations translates Spanish and Latin American documents into certified English for UK visas, court files, universities and regulators. A qualified translator prepares every order, and it comes back with a signed certification page, normally the same day when the order and cleared payment arrive before 4pm on a working day.

Spanish documents are quoted from £40 per document, and longer files are charged from £0.09 per word past 400 words. Notarisation, where required, is quoted on its own because the notary's fee depends on the document.

Most Spanish certificates are finished the same day when the order and cleared payment arrive before 4pm on a working day, and later orders start on the next working day. If a visa or court deadline is tight, we can prioritise the file, and the quote fixes the delivery date before you pay.

Yes. A Spanish order carries a signed statement of accuracy with the translator's name and contact details, the two things UKVI looks for. The Home Office does not approve translators, so acceptance is settled by the caseworker on your route. We have not had a Spanish translation returned for a certification problem.

Yes. We handle Spanish documents from Spain and across Latin America, including Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, Peru, Chile and Cuba. The headings and document names differ by country, and we translate the version in front of us.

They are the notes written in the margin of a Spanish civil-registry certificate, recording a later marriage, divorce, name change or death. Caseworkers often need those notes translated as well, so we include them rather than stopping at the main fields.

Spanish names usually carry a paternal and a maternal surname, and the same person can appear under different combinations across a passport, certificate and transcript. We settle on a single English spelling for your whole file.

Yes. An antecedentes penales certificate is the Spanish criminal record document, and we translate it in full, including the record number, the issuing office and any stamp.

No. We work from scans or photographs of every page, including the reverse and any stamp, so the originals remain with you. The certified English version is returned as a PDF.

Not the Spanish original. The FCDO apostilles a UK-issued document or a notarised translation we completed ourselves, and nothing else, so the route here is notarisation of our English version followed by the apostille. A Spanish original is legalised in Spain.

Yes. Spanish documents are translated into English for UK authorities as certified copies with a signed statement, and for businesses as straightforward translation with no certification attached. Certificates, court papers and academic records are all dealt with, starting from £40 per document, or from £0.09 per word above 400 words.

Yes. English documents are translated into Spanish for Spanish and Latin American organisations, with certification available where the recipient accepts a UK certificate. Tenders, contracts, manuals and personal documents are covered, quoted from £40 per document, and from £0.10 per word past 400 words, a rate that rises for certain pairs.
