Need a sworn Spanish translator in Antwerp for civil status documents, an immigration file or a commercial contract? Our sworn translators, accredited by the Belgian Courts of Appeal, deliver certified Spanish-Dutch and Spanish-French translations within 24 hours.
Why you need a sworn Spanish translator in Antwerp
Spanish is spoken across 20 countries in Latin America and Spain, making it one of the world's most widely spoken languages. In Antwerp, Spanish-speaking residents - from Spain, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico and beyond - regularly require certified translations of official documents for procedures at the Civil Registry, the DVZ, Flemish municipal offices and Antwerp courts.
Additionally, Antwerp's commercial importance - particularly its role as a diamond and logistics hub - means Spanish-language contracts and notarial deeds frequently pass through local businesses. For all such purposes, a sworn translator registered with SPF Justice is mandatory. For visa and residency procedures, the DVZ will not accept any other form of certified translation.
