Sworn Translation for adoption procedures is essential when you have the intention of carrying out an international adoption.
- Procedures within Spain:
If you need to legalise an international adoption of a child from Russia, China etc. you need to present a Sworn Translation of the Birth Certificate of the adopted child to the authorities.
- Procedures outside of Spain:
If, for example, you want to adopt a child from China, it is necessary that you present the Chinese authorities with a sworn translation from Spanish to Chinese of a Passport, Birth Certificate, Marriage Certificate, Criminal Record Certificate etc.
