Policies, cover and insurer correspondence
Full insurance policies, schedules, certificates, exclusions, endorsements, renewal notices, cancellation notices and insurer correspondence can be translated. Terms such as policyholder, insured, beneficiary, premium, coverage, cover, excess, deductible and endorsement are handled in their contractual and jurisdictional context rather than treated as universally equivalent.
Claims, loss and compensation documents
Claim forms, claim decisions, correspondence, loss or damage assessments, settlement letters and compensation statements can also be translated. The translation faithfully reproduces the document; it does not determine whether a claim is valid, calculate compensation, decide cover or liability, or advise on strategy with the insurer.
Health insurance and medical records
A document issued by an insurer — such as a private health insurance coverage certificate or benefit letter — falls within this category. Clinical reports, diagnoses, treatment records and medical certificates belong to the medical document sworn translation service. Both may appear in the same claim.
Life insurance and probate documents
Life insurance policies, benefit statements, beneficiary documents, insurer certificates and claim correspondence can be translated. Where the main document concerns an estate or succession, the inheritance and probate service may be more appropriate. No probate advice is provided.
Motor insurance and driving documents
Motor insurance certificates, policies, claims and accident-related insurer correspondence can be translated. Driving licences and administrative driver records are covered separately under driving licences and DVLA documents.
Home insurance, property and damage claims
A home insurance policy or property damage claim is an insurance document. A deed, Land Registry extract or ownership certificate belongs to property and Land Registry documents. This distinction keeps the terminology appropriate to the source.
Professional indemnity and professional registration
Professional indemnity policies, liability insurance and certificates of cover can be translated where the main document is insurance-related. Documents whose main purpose is to prove a professional licence, membership or registration are covered under professional registration documents.
Insurance, banking and court documents
Bank statements, balances, transactions, accounts and investments are banking documents. Policies, premiums, cover, claims, compensation and losses are insurance documents. Where the main document is a judgment, order or court decision, see court and divorce documents, even if the dispute involves an insurer.
English documents for use in Spain
UK insurance policies, US insurance documents, certificates of insurance, claims documentation, insurer correspondence, settlement letters and benefit statements can be translated for use in Spain where appropriate. Documents may also come from Ireland, Canada, Australia or other countries, provided that they are written in English or Spanish.
Spanish documents for use abroad
Spanish insurance policies, certificates, insurer letters, claim records, compensation communications and coverage documents can also be translated into English. For use outside Spain, requirements should be checked beforehand with the receiving institution or authority.
Translation service, not insurance advice
Sergio provides sworn translation services. He does not determine whether cover exists, interpret exclusions, calculate compensation, advise on claims, decide liability or recommend whether to accept or reject a settlement offer. Those matters belong to insurers, lawyers, brokers or other competent professionals.
Apostille and legalisation
A sworn translation and an apostille or legalisation are separate matters. Insurance documents do not always require an apostille; the requirement depends on the document, country, purpose and recipient. It should be checked before the procedure begins.
Quote from a PDF, scan or photograph
You can send a PDF, scan or clear photographs of every page for a quote. These formats allow the work to be assessed but may not always be sufficient for final submission; the recipient may require an original, certified copy or another formality.
Confidential handling and careful terminology
Insurance documents may contain personal, medical, financial or property information and are handled confidentially. The translation gives close attention to names, policy and claim numbers, dates, amounts, cover, exclusions and contractual references without adding interpretations not present in the source.
