Sworn translation in Pamplona

Pamplona is known for its San Fermín bull runs, but the rest of the year the city runs on two quieter engines: healthcare and industry. The Clínica Universidad de Navarra draws patients and medical staff from across the world; the University of Navarra and the UPNA take in researchers and students every academic year; and out at the Landaben industrial estate the Volkswagen Navarra plant —where the T-Cross rolls off the line— hires engineers and technicians who land with their families and a signed contract. Sooner or later, all of them meet the same paperwork: a foreign document that no Spanish authority will accept until a sworn translator has translated it.

At Textualia we work entirely online with residents and newcomers in Pamplona and across Navarre. You upload your document to the calculator, see the final price right away and, once you pay, receive your sworn translation as an electronically signed PDF — fully valid before the Government of Navarre, the Pamplona immigration office, the registries and notaries. If your procedure needs paper, we courier the copy on official State-stamped paper anywhere in the region within one or two business days.

A sworn translation signed by a translator accredited by Spain's MAEC is fully valid throughout Spain. For clients in Navarre, we routinely use it before:

• The Pamplona immigration office (Extranjería) and the Government Delegation in Navarre (residence, visas, NIE, TIE).
• The Government of Navarre and its regional departments of Education, Health and Finance.
• The Civil Registry of Pamplona (births, marriages, nationality).
• The University of Navarra and the UPNA (admission, degree recognition and validation).
• Notaries and Land Registries in Navarre, courts and any public body across the rest of Spain.
• Important: MAEC accreditation establishes validity in Spain; if you plan to submit the document to an authority in another country, check first which type of translation they require there.

These are the documents we are most often asked to translate in Pamplona:

• International hiring at Volkswagen Navarra and its supplier industry: degrees, professional certificates and contracts translated into Spanish.
• Admission and degree recognition at the University of Navarra and the UPNA, plus validation of medical and scientific records.
• Healthcare at the Clínica Universidad de Navarra: clinical reports and consent forms for international patients.
• Residence and family reunification, including the digital nomad visa with an apostilled criminal-record certificate (FBI in the USA, ACRO in the UK, bulletin no. 3 in France…).
• Marriage in Spain and registration of births at the Civil Registry.
• Spanish nationality by residence.

Few cities of its size handle as much international paperwork as Pamplona, and almost all of it passes through two places. At the Clínica Universidad de Navarra, patients arrive each year with records and test results in English or French, alongside foreign doctors who must have their qualifications recognised before they can practise. Out at Landaben, Volkswagen Navarra and the region's suppliers take on engineers who turn up with a signed contract and a half-finished family move. The authorities ask for the same thing in both cases: the foreign document translated into Spanish by a sworn translator before it counts.

That is the part we take care of. We translate clinical reports, university degrees, professional certificates and already-apostilled criminal-record checks; we deliver them signed and ready for your file and, if the procedure needs paper, get them to Pamplona in a day or two. One point worth being clear about: our MAEC sworn translation is valid in Spain. If the document is bound for an authority in another country, check first which type of translation they require there.
