Spanish translation services for Spain and Latin America

Spanish is one language, but the Spanish of Spain and the Spanish of Latin America differ in vocabulary, forms of address and the way documents are written, and each country has its own expressions. A good translation follows the variant of the country where the document will be used.

  • Vocabulary: car is coche in Spain, carro in Mexico and Colombia and auto in Argentina; computer is ordenador in Spain and computadora in Latin America; cell phone is móvil and celular.
  • Forms of address: Spain uses vosotros for "you all", Latin America uses ustedes, and Argentina and Uruguay use vos instead of tú.
  • Names: most Spanish speakers carry two surnames, the father's first and then the mother's, and the translation keeps every name exactly as in the original.
  • Dates and numbers: dates are written day, month and year, so 03/10/2026 is October 3. Spain uses a decimal comma, while Mexico and several other countries use a decimal point, as in English.
  • Documents: a birth certificate is an acta de nacimiento in Mexico and a partida de nacimiento in other countries, and ID numbers go by names such as DNI, CURP or cédula. The translation reproduces every stamp, seal and note.

The history of the Spanish language

Spanish grew out of the Latin spoken in Castile, in the north of the Iberian Peninsula, which is why it is also called Castilian. Some of its oldest written traces are the Glosas Emilianenses, notes in the margins of a Latin manuscript from around the 10th or 11th century.

In the 13th century, King Alfonso X made Castilian the language of royal documents and of science. In 1492, Antonio de Nebrija published the first grammar of the language, and in the same year Columbus reached the Americas, where Spanish spread across a continent. In 1605, Miguel de Cervantes published the first part of Don Quixote, the most famous novel in the language.

Today Spanish has nearly 500 million native speakers, more than any other language except Mandarin Chinese, and most of them live in Mexico. The Royal Spanish Academy, founded in 1713, works with 22 other academies of the language to keep a common standard.

Help Center

Turnaround, price, accepted documents and how to order: the most common questions are already answered in the Help Center, organized by topic.

Do you translate Spanish from Spain and from Latin America?

Yes. We translate documents from Spain, Mexico and every Spanish-speaking country, to and from English, Portuguese and other languages, and we follow the variant of the country where the translation will be used. Tell us the destination when you order.

Can you translate a document from English into Spanish or Portuguese?

Yes. Spanish and Portuguese are among our core languages, in both directions. We translate US documents such as birth certificates, diplomas and records into Spanish or Portuguese as a certified translation, or as a sworn translation when it will be used in Brazil.

Can you translate between two languages other than English, such as Italian to Portuguese?

Often yes, depending on the pair and the service. For certified translation we confirm translator availability. For sworn translation into Portuguese, some pairs require a two-step route through English. We tell you the option before quoting.

Is the translation done by people or by machine?

By people. Every document is translated by a professional linguist and goes through double human review for accuracy, grammar, formatting and consistency before delivery.

Can you do a sworn translation from any language into Portuguese?

It depends on the language pair, because a sworn translation requires a public translator registered for that language. For pairs without one, we can offer a two-step route: certified translation into English, then sworn translation from English into Portuguese. We confirm before quoting.

Which languages do you translate?

Our core languages are Portuguese, Spanish, English, Italian and French, and we work with many more, from Arabic and Chinese to German, Japanese and Russian. Tell us the language pair and we confirm availability before quoting.
