Sworn translator in Andorra: how sworn translation works and how to order it

If you live in Andorra, are moving there or need to use an Andorran document abroad, you will probably be asked for a sworn translation at some point. Here is who can provide one, when you need it and how to order it without hassle.

What a sworn translator in Andorra is

In Andorra, sworn translators and interpreters are authorised by the Government of Andorra and listed in the Registre de traductors i intèrprets jurats, which you can consult on the Government’s website. Each entry shows the languages that person is authorised for.

A sworn translation carries the translator’s signature and stamp, certifying that the text is faithful to the original. That is why authorities, notaries and other institutions usually ask for one when a document is in another language.

When you need a sworn translation in Andorra

The most common cases are:

• Residence and work applications, when the original document is in another language.
• Birth, marriage or criminal record certificates issued in another country.
• Degrees and academic transcripts for study, work or professional registration.
• Deeds, powers of attorney and banking or company documents.

Each authority decides which language and format it accepts. Before ordering the translation, check with the institution where you will submit it.

Andorran documents for use abroad

If you need to submit a document issued in Andorra in another country, you will usually have to translate it into that country’s language. Andorra is party to the Hague Apostille Convention, so when the destination country is too, the document is usually apostilled in Andorra before it is translated. To find out more, read our guide to the Hague apostille.

Languages

Dorsa D. M., founder of DDM International, is a sworn translator of Catalan, Spanish, French and English listed in the official register of the Government of Andorra. For all other languages we work with an international network of sworn translators and assign each document to the right professional for that language pair and the country where it will be submitted.

How to order your sworn translation

1. Send us a complete, legible copy of the document, with every page, stamp and the apostille if it has one.
2. Tell us the language, the country and the institution where you will submit it.
3. Tell us how your name appears in your passport, so the translation follows it.
4. Receive a quote and turnaround with no obligation.

Short documents are usually ready within a few days, and if you are in a hurry we offer an urgent service. The price depends on the language pair and the length of the document.
