Hi, is there a translation service for to translate these documents from Spanish into English, doing this over the internet.

I had reason to visit a bank who gave me some documentation to sign, I was not able to translate and the Bank were not much help with this

I do not live in Spain, I live in Ireland.

Hi Jacqui, there's lots of sites the same. I feel legal documents need special handling. Usually the sites are ideal to get the general idea.

Try ..

Hi Paddy,

The Spanish government posts a lists of certified translators in Spain, by language and region. Perhaps if you want to make sure it's translated correclty, it's worth contacting one of these translators. I'm sure there will be many with experience translating financial and legal documents.

Go here and click on the link to Lista de Intérpretes Jurados:

If you're in Ireland, it won't cost much to send things by post (or maybe you can email them the docs). Or you may even be able to find a Web site that gives translations of the documents, if they are pretty standard. I've found Web sites with translations of standard apartment lease contracts in Spain, for example.

Good luck,

Kronos
