I've been using Bluebird for a year now for all my translating stuff between English, Dutch, and Spanish. I often need... my papers translated officially, and it was really important for me to find a company I could trust.

This has made my life a lot easier. They are really good at dealing with last-minute stuff without messing up the quality.I'd tell anyone who needs translations done between English, Dutch, and Spanish to use them.read more

Quality service, great value for money ! I needed some UK birth and marriage certificates with apostille translated... into Spanish (sworn translation, validated by the Spanish foreign ministry) for a Spanish nationality application. I approached Bluebird/José Carlo Gil directly. They gave me a competitive price (I checked with 4 other companies in one based in Spain) that didn't include intermediary costs. Communication was professional & efficient from the start, timing expectations were clear, and I picked up the documents on the day agreed, professionally prepared. I'll certainly go back for the next set of translations I need !read more

The communication was fast and professional. They sent the translations to my address and arrived on time. I think the... fee they charged to send the envelope was a little bit expensive comparing to what I have paid to send an envelope to another cities (like 4,50 euros), but I imagine it was expensive as they a very busy and needed to take time to go and send this from a post office. TRUSTABLE, and the only few sworn translators in The Netherlands.read more

Bluebird Translations did a fantastic job translating an official document sworn translation from Spanish to English.... They've been quick on their feet in response, and are very cooperative in meeting customers' needs. Their help will save me a lot of hassle in the future when having to send in the same document again to other institutions. Besides, another major bonus is their pricing strategy, which is very competitive if not the best in the market. In the future, I'll surely need them again, and definitely reach out to them!

What is a sworn translation?
A sworn translation is an official translation carried out, signed, and sealed by a sworn translator, who grants the document full legal validity before the courts, the relevant authority, or any other recipient. The translated document, presented alongside the original, holds the same validity as the original in the country where it was first issued.
Sworn translations are needed for various international procedures requiring special legal certainty: notarial acts, birth/marriage certificates, court orders, reports, diplomas and official titles, academic validations/accreditations, etc.
About Apostilles
An apostille is a legal certification for authenticating the seals and signatures of government officials (civil servants) and/or official sworn translators. It is used when a document issued in the first country is subsequently submitted in a second country. The apostille serves as a confirmation made by the country of origin that the stamp and/or signature on the document pertains to a particular individual and confirms the capacity in which he/she acted when the document was executed. In our case, we sign and stamp our translations as official sworn translators at a national level.
Apostilles that can be requested in the courts (Rechtbanken) of the Netherlands to authenticate our sworn translations are called “Apostilles of The Hague Convention.” In 1961 many nations joined together to create a simplified method to authenticate documents for universal recognition. This apostille allows our sworn translations to be officially recognised in the country of intended use as long as that country is member of the Convention.
If you are submitting our sworn translations in the Netherlands, no apostilles or further authentications will be required; our sworn translation should be sufficient. However, please note that your source document may need to be apostilled in the country of origin. In order to confirm this, you will need to ask the body, agency, or entity where you intend to submit your sworn translation.
