Urgent sworn translation and large projects
Urgent or bulk sworn translation is the service through which I translate complete files and batches of documents (for individuals, companies, law firms, relocation agencies and administrative advisers) with a single quote and a single deadline confirmed in writing before I start, delivered in order, document by document, as signed PDFs. I am Elena Peñaranda Ortega, sworn translator no. 7310: I do not subcontract, so every page is translated, signed and stamped by me. Capacity: up to 500 pages per week. Individual documents take 24/48 hours.

Who is this service for?
- Individuals with a complete file: digital nomad visa, citizenship, family reunification, recognition of qualifications or court proceedings with dozens of documents that must be submitted together.
- Companies: annual accounts, deeds, powers of attorney, contracts, employment documents for posted workers, tenders and due diligence with a hard deadline.
- Law firms, administrative advisers and relocation agencies: recurring batches of client documents, invoiced to the firm, with a single point of contact.
- Universities and schools: transcripts and degrees for groups of students with the same delivery date.
How do I handle a batch of documents?
A batch is not a pile of separate orders. I treat it as a project with five fixed steps:
- Prior review. I receive the complete folder, go through it document by document and tell you what is missing, what does not need translating and what is in a language I do not translate.
- Apostille checklist. I tell you which documents need an apostille or legalisation before translation, so nothing has to be redone.
- Single deadline in writing. Fixed quote and delivery date in one document, with partial deliveries if they help you file in stages.
- Consistent translation. Same names, same dates, same terminology across the whole batch; client glossary if there is one.
- Ordered delivery and invoicing. One signed PDF per document, numbered like your folder, plus an index; invoice in your name or your company's, with VAT itemised.
How much volume can you take on, and how fast?
I can handle up to 500 pages per week; for larger volumes or rush jobs beyond that, ask me and I will confirm a deadline in writing.
A standard document (certificate, letter, short contract) takes 24/48 hours. For a batch, the deadline depends on the number of pages, the format (poor-quality scans take longer to prepare) and whether apostilles are still pending. That is why I do not publish a generic turnaround: I calculate it with your folder in front of me, confirm it in writing, and that is the deadline I keep.
What I do not do
- I do not subcontract. Every sworn translation is done, signed and stamped by me. If a batch exceeds my capacity within your deadline, I tell you and propose partial deliveries rather than splitting it among translators you do not know.
- I do not translate other languages. English ⇆ Spanish only. If your batch includes documents in French, German or Hindi, I flag them in the review.
- I do not promise deadlines I cannot keep. I would rather tell you I cannot make it than say yes and fail on the day of your appointment.
How do I work with companies and law firms?
One point of contact, a quote per batch or a rate per document type for recurring work, invoices with your company's tax number, and payment by bank transfer or card. I sign a confidentiality agreement before seeing the documents if you need one. For paper deliveries I courier to the firm's office or directly to the end client, in Spain or abroad (courier cost stated in the quote). See the pricing page for indicative amounts per document.

Frequently asked questions
Do you charge a rush fee?
It depends on the deadline and the volume. If there is a surcharge, it is itemised in the quote before you confirm; never afterwards.
Can you deliver part of the batch earlier?
Yes. If you have several appointments or deadlines, we organise partial deliveries in blocks, and each block arrives signed and numbered.
Do you invoice companies and law firms?
Yes, with the company's tax number and VAT itemised. For recurring work I can agree a rate per document type.
How long does a complete digital nomad visa file take?
You get a single deadline in writing before I start; individual documents take 24/48 hours. With a capacity of up to 500 pages per week, most files are ready within a few days.
Do you work with clients outside Spain?
Yes. The whole process is digital: I receive the folder by email or link, payment is by international card and delivery is a signed PDF, with paper by courier to any country if needed.
