Frequently Asked Questions About Legal Translations
What makes these the best legal translation services in Ecuador?
Our services are considered the best because we combine judicial authorization, academic expertise, and rapid delivery. Every translation is performed by a Perito Traductor registered with the Judicial Council, ensuring it is legally valid for all official purposes in Ecuador and abroad.
Is there a difference between a certified and a sworn translation?
In Ecuador, these terms are often used interchangeably. A sworn translation is one signed and sealed by a translator who has taken an oath before the court. This certification makes the document legally binding and official. We provide both certified and sworn translations depending on your needs.
How long does a legal translation take?
Most standard documents (1-5 pages) are completed within 1 to 2 business days. Larger legal bundles or highly specialized technical documents may take longer. We always provide a clear delivery date with every quote to ensure you can meet your deadlines.
Do you offer discounts for long documents?
Yes, we value long-term partnerships and large projects. Discounts automatically apply starting from the 3rd page of your document. For very large legal cases or business contracts, we can provide customized volume pricing.
Can you apostille my foreign documents?
No, we only offer Apostille services for Ecuadorian documents that need to be used abroad. If you have a foreign document that needs an Apostille, you must obtain it from the government of the country where the document was issued.
Are your translations accepted by SENESCYT?
Absolutely. We specialize in the translation of diplomas, transcripts, and degrees for academic recognition. Our translations meet all the specific requirements set by SENESCYT and the Ministry of Education of Ecuador.
