Contracts, deeds, court judgments, bylaws, powers of attorney, accounts, employment or tax documents: find the document you need to translate and we take you straight to how we do it. For individuals, companies and law firms.
A legal document is any document with legal effect —contracts, deeds, court judgments, bylaws, powers of attorney, annual accounts, payslips or certificates— that creates rights or obligations between the parties. Translating it calls for a translator with legal judgment: it is not enough to carry words across, you have to keep the exact legal terminology and the equivalence of concepts between different legal systems. Depending on its use, the document is translated as a sworn translation (with the signature and seal of a translator accredited by the MAEC, when it needs validity before an authority) or as a simple translation (for internal use, negotiation or information). This page brings together the main families of legal documents and takes you to the specific translation of each one.
Commercial, employment and sale-and-purchase contracts, NDAs and terms, with terminological precision and equivalence between legal systems.
Judgments, claims, procedural filings, arbitral awards and letters rogatory for cross-border litigation and proceedings.
Deeds, notarial powers of attorney, wills, inheritances, prenuptial agreements and divorce documents, with the formal consistency each instrument requires.
Bylaws, minutes, due diligence, mergers and acquisitions, regulations and compliance policies for companies and law firms.
Translators specialised in law who master the terminology and the equivalences between legal systems. We review every clause, statutory reference and legal concept before delivery. Personal attention from start to finish.
Select the language and tell us where the document is headed (country and body). We tailor the approach and delivery to what notaries, courts, registries, public authorities or companies usually require. If you don’t see your combination, just ask.

The difference lies not in the document but in where it’s headed: the same contract or deed may need a sworn translation or a simple one may be enough. Here’s the quick rule; if you’re unsure about your case, we confirm it before anything is commissioned.
When the document is submitted to a public authority, notary, registry, court or university. It bears the signature and seal of a translator accredited by the MAEC and has legal validity.
When the document is for understanding, negotiating or working internally and does not need to be submitted with an official seal. Same terminological precision, without MAEC certification.

GuaranteedThere is no single rate: every legal document is different. The price is calculated from these four factors, which is why we need to see the document before giving you a firm figure.
Send us these four details and we’ll reply with a price, a feasible turnaround and a recommended delivery format.
When a legal document must take effect before a public authority, a court, a registry or a notary, a sworn translation is required, signed and sealed by an officially accredited sworn translator-interpreter. You can check accreditation by language in the official search tool of the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The general framework is governed, among other rules, by Royal Decree 724/2020 (BOE), which regulates the Language Interpreting Office and the role of the sworn translator. If your procedure is international, an apostille or legalisation may also be required depending on the country.
At Trayma we review the destination country and body with you before issuing the final version, to recommend the safest delivery format and avoid follow-up requests.
These are the most common legal documents we translate. Some need the sworn option and for others a simple translation is enough: if yours isn’t on the list, ask us and we’ll confirm what you need.
