About sworn translation in Barcelona
Is an online sworn translation legally valid?
Yes. A sworn translation signed electronically by a translator accredited by the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MAEC) has the same legal effect as a paper translation (Ministry Resolution of 26 July 2020). It is accepted by public administrations, courts, universities, notaries and registries throughout Spain.
