Frequently asked questions

Common questions about English in Barcelona

I'm a Barcelona start-up founder closing a round with a US fund. Do you cover the whole package?

Yes. Full round packages: term sheet, SAFE / convertible note, share purchase agreement, shareholders agreement and voting agreement. Standard 5-7 business days for an 80-150 page round; urgent 24-48 h with surcharge for tight closings.

I'm arriving in Barcelona on a DNV from the UK. Which UK documents should I bring apostilled?

The essentials: ACRO Police Certificate apostilled by FCDO Milton Keynes, long-form birth certificate apostilled, IHR-2005 medical certificate apostilled, employment or freelance proof, and proof of financial means. All sworn-translated before your BLS or Immigration appointment. Detailed in our DNV blog post.

I want to homologate my UK master's at UPF. What do you translate?

The master's diploma with FCDO apostille, the complete transcript (all courses, ECTS credits or equivalents, grades), and the course syllabi of the master's. The last is the most laborious but indispensable for the Ministry to assess the academic content.
