What it is and when it is required

What is included in a certified translation of a memorandum of association?

A certified translation of a company’s articles of association is the official translation of the document, signed and stamped by an authorised translator, which certifies that it is a true and faithful translation of the original and renders it valid for use before notaries, registries and authorities.

This is required when a deed must be submitted to a notary, a registry or a body that requires an official translation, particularly in the context of company formation with an international element, the establishment of subsidiaries, investment or commercial procedures outside the country of origin.

In this type of document, it is not enough simply to translate corporate terms: it is essential to maintain formal consistency in details such as the company name, registered office, corporate purpose, share capital, shares, positions, powers of attorney, dates, numbering, seals and annexes. Even the slightest discrepancy can lead to requests for clarification. Therefore, in order to provide an accurate quote, we need to see the full deed (including any annexes), the languages involved, the recipient country or body, and your deadline.

Frequently Asked Questions

Sworn translations of articles of association: frequently asked questions

When is a certified translation of a deed of incorporation required?
This is required when the receiving body requests an official translation for legal or administrative purposes, particularly in international proceedings: registering a company in another country, setting up a subsidiary, tendering processes or investment. In such cases, the deed is only accepted if accompanied by a certified translation.
What does a certified translation of a deed of incorporation include?
It includes the official translation, signed and stamped by a sworn translator, retaining the original format, stamps and references, and ensuring the consistency of details such as the company name, share capital, positions, dates and annexes.
What is the difference between a certified translation and a non-certified commercial translation?
A certified translation is officially valid because it is signed and stamped by an authorised translator. An uncertified commercial translation is usually for internal use only and may not be accepted by a notary, registry or public body. If in doubt, check the requirements before commissioning the translation.
How do you avoid errors in critical data in the document (capital letters, positions, numbering, annexes)?
We carry out an independent review and a final consistency check: figures, dates, names, references and the correspondence between the main document and its annexes. This is where the most corrections are avoided in a deed of incorporation.
How long does it take to get a certified translation of a deed of incorporation?
It depends on the language, length and complexity (tables, appendices and associated documentation). Based on your deadline and the destination country or organisation, we will confirm a realistic timeframe and consider an express service if you require one.
Can the delivery be digital or does it have to be on paper?
It depends on the requirements of the relevant body. Some accept a digital copy to start the process, whilst others require the original hard copy, signed and stamped. We will confirm this with you before issuing the final version.
Can I request a certified translation without having to go anywhere?
Yes. You can send the deed as a PDF or a scan and complete the process online, wherever you are. If you need to visit our office in Alicante in person, we’ll arrange this on a case-by-case basis.
