Spanish to English translation that reads as written in English
Corporate, technical, legal and creative content from Spain and Latin America, translated into native US or British English by mother-tongue specialists.
A Spanish to English translation agency converts content from Spain and Latin America into native English for global use, with translators working only into their mother tongue. Orion Translations covers corporate, technical, legal and sworn Spanish-English translation in both English variants, from Barcelona since 2009, with fixed quotes in one business day.
The world reads your company in English first
For a Spanish or Latin American company, the English version is the international version: investors, partners and customers who will never read the original judge you entirely on it. English with Spanish bones, calqued idioms, over-long sentences, false friends, quietly marks content as foreign before anyone evaluates the substance.
Our rule is structural: into-English work is done by native English linguists who read Spanish regionally and write English professionally, reviewed by a second linguist, with your terminology held in a termbase so year three sounds like year one.

The official layer: sworn and certified
Documents leaving Spanish or Latin American authorities for English-speaking destinations need attested translation: MAEC-sworn from Spain, USCIS-certified for US immigration, certified formats for UK institutions, with apostille sequencing advised before you pay for anything twice. Academic credentials follow the same desk via academic translation.
Spanish creative content, in English that performs
Spain and Latin America export stories: our Spanish-English dubbing, subtitling and script translation teams carry film, series and campaign content into English with the craft each format demands, one glossary across every deliverable.
Both directions, one partner
English content entering Spanish-speaking markets, with the Castilian versus Latin American decision made properly, runs through our English to Spanish agency desk. Companies working both directions get one termbase, one team and pricing that reflects the combined volume.
From Spanish, into English the world takes at face value.
