Spanish Translation Services Singapore

Yes, we choose the right Spanish variant based on where your document is going. Castilian (peninsular) Spanish goes to Spain and European Union submissions, while Latin American Spanish goes to documents headed for Mexico, Argentina, Chile, or Colombia. The vocabulary and even some legal terms shift between them.

Yes, Mexican-origin papers are translated using Mexican legal and administrative vocabulary (acta de nacimiento, CURP, RFC, etc.). We never substitute Spain-only terms like DNI or NIE. Mexican consular offices and SRE-stamped documents are routine for our team.

Yes, an escritura pública from a Spanish notario in Madrid follows a different protocol numbering than one from a Buenos Aires escribano or a Mexico City notario. We respect each country's notarial format. The notary seal description in English is matched to the local convention.

Yes, our certified Spanish translations are accepted by chambers of commerce in Spain and Mercosur trade bodies in South America. Sociedad anónima (S.A.) and sociedad de responsabilidad limitada (S.L. / S.R.L.) corporate forms are translated using the names each region's authorities expect.

Yes, Hispanic-world apostilles from Spain, Argentina, Mexico, Peru, Chile, and Colombia are all referenced correctly on our certification page. The apostille number and issuing authority are kept visible. We do not translate the apostille itself unless your destination country specifically asks.

Yes, every accent and tilde (á, é, í, ó, ú, ñ) stays exactly where it belongs. Removing an accent can legally change a name in Spanish-speaking countries. Our translators type each name carefully and our reviewer cross-checks against your passport spelling.

Yes, our Spanish team includes native speakers from Spain, Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Peru, Chile, and Venezuela. We assign your file to a translator from the region your document belongs to. This avoids the awkward "Spanish that smells wrong" feeling that hurts official credibility.

Yes, bilingual documents from Catalonia (Spanish + Catalan), the Basque Country (Spanish + Euskara), or Galicia (Spanish + Gallego) are handled by translators who read both languages. We translate the full text without skipping the regional-language portions. Each language is clearly labelled in the English version.

Yes, corporate entity names like S.L., S.A., S.R.L., and S.A. de C.V. are kept in their original abbreviation with an English explanation in brackets. This matters for ACRA, MAS, and Singapore commercial lawyers comparing your foreign entity to local equivalents. We never collapse them into "private limited" without explanation.

Spanish academic titles like Licenciatura, Grado, Máster, Bachiller, and Técnico Superior keep their original name with an English equivalent in brackets (for example, "Licenciatura en Derecho [Bachelor of Laws]"). This is the format Singapore MOE-linked employers and universities prefer for verification.

Yes, testamento abierto, testamento cerrado, declaración de herederos, and partición hereditaria are routine for our legal Spanish team. The civil-law inheritance vocabulary used in Spain and Latin America is different from Singapore's common-law system. We add short footnotes where a Spanish concept has no direct English equivalent.

Yes, the Embassy of Spain in Singapore accepts our certified Spanish-English translations for consular legalisation and visa work. The same applies to Mexican, Argentine, Colombian, Peruvian, and Chilean consulates that handle their citizens through Singapore. Each embassy has small layout preferences — we know them.
