Why Brussels is the hub for Swedish translation in Belgium
With more than 10,000 Swedes registered in the Brussels Region, Brussels is by far the Belgian city with the largest number of Swedish residents and workers. EU institution civil servants, representatives of companies such as IKEA, Volvo, Ericsson and major Nordic banks (Handelsbanken, SEB) all have regular needs for official translations between Swedish and French.
- EU institutions: European Commission, Parliament, Council - Swedish civil servants produce documents in their national language requiring translation into French or Dutch for personal Belgian procedures.
- Scandinavian companies: IKEA (European headquarters in Brussels), H&M, Spotify, King - these companies have occasional needs for contract, report and HR document translations.
- Civil status documents: Franco-Swedish mixed marriages, acknowledgement of paternity, diplomas to be validated by Brussels municipalities or the Immigration Office.
Swedish documents translated in Brussels: the most common

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can I have EU documents translated into Swedish in Brussels?
Yes. We translate in both directions: Swedish into French or Dutch, and French or English into Swedish. For EU civil servants who need to have personal Belgian documents certified for presentation to Swedish authorities, we can also produce certified translations in the reverse direction.
Does the Immigration Office in Brussels accept online sworn translations?
Yes, the Immigration Office (OE) accepts sworn translations produced remotely, provided they are produced by a sworn translator registered on the Belgian RNEJ and accredited by a Court of Appeal. Our service meets these criteria. The translation is delivered in a certified PDF with the translator's official signature and stamp.
How long does a Swedish-French translation take in Brussels?
For simple documents (civil status documents, one- or two-page personnbevis), the express deadline is 24 hours. For more voluminous documents (company articles of association, commercial contracts, judicial files), allow 48 to 72 hours. For absolute emergencies, contact us directly to assess the feasibility of same-day delivery.
