Spanish Legal and Business Translation for Spanish and Latin American Companies in Georgia

Registering a Georgian company with Spanish or Latin American founders

A Spanish S.L. or S.A., a Mexican S.A. de C.V., an Argentine S.R.L. or a Colombian S.A.S. founding a Georgian subsidiary, branch or representative office submits a Georgian translation of its certificado del Registro Mercantil (or Mexican acta constitutiva with Registro Público inscription, Argentine estatuto with IGJ registration, Colombian certificado de existencia y representación legal from the Cámara de Comercio), its escritura de constitución and estatutos, the acta or acuerdo of the junta or board approving the Georgian entity, and a poder if a local representative files. All must be apostilled in the country of origin and notarized in Tbilisi. Individual founders - the many Latin American nomads registering as individual entrepreneurs - submit a translated passport. We draft the Georgian charter bilingually with a parallel Spanish column, and we know the wording the National Agency of Public Registry expects. After registration, the Georgian extract and charter are translated into Spanish for the parent company, its bank and its gestor or contador.

Contratos between Spanish-speaking and Georgian parties

Georgian law permits contracts in any language, but the Georgian version is what a registry or court reads, so cross-border contracts are drafted bilingually in parallel columns. We translate contratos de compraventa for property and equipment, contratos de arrendamiento, contratos de trabajo for Spanish staff seconded to Georgia and Georgian workers recruited to Spain, contratos de suministro and distribución for wine and food traders, contratos de obra for energy and construction, pactos de socios, contratos de préstamo and avales, acuerdos de confidencialidad and contratos de franquicia for Spanish brands opening in Tbilisi. The translator is a legal specialist who keeps defined terms, cross-references and numbering consistent and flags where a Spanish or Latin American concept - reserva de dominio, cláusula penal, arras, fideicomiso in Mexico, certain garantía rules - needs a lawyer's decision on the Georgian equivalent rather than a translator's guess.

Sentencias, arbitration and enforcement

Spanish and Latin American judgments in family, commercial and succession matters are recognized and enforced in Georgia through proceedings requiring notarized Georgian translations of the sentencia, the certificado de firmeza and supporting documents, all apostilled. Georgian judgments and notarized loan deeds go the other way for ejecución in Spain, Mexico or Argentina, translated into Spanish and apostilled. Arbitration under the Corte de Arbitraje de Madrid, the CAM in Mexico, the ICC or the Georgian International Arbitration Centre produces bilingual submissions, witness statements, expert reports and awards which we translate under procedural deadlines. Sucesiones - Spanish testamentos and escrituras de herencia concerning Georgian property, and Georgian inheritance certificates for Spanish and Latin American estates - are handled by the same team. Litigation files are handled under NDA with restricted access.

Cuentas anuales, auditoría and tax documents

Georgian subsidiaries of Spanish and Latin American groups report to head office under the Plan General Contable, NIF or local GAAP and IFRS, and investors present accounts to Georgian banks and the Revenue Service. We translate cuentas anuales and memorias, balances and cuentas de pérdidas y ganancias, informes de auditoría, certificados de residencia fiscal for treaty relief under the Spain-Georgia double taxation convention, IVA and modelo declarations, transfer pricing files and bank confirmation letters. Latin American nomads registered as Georgian individual entrepreneurs frequently need their Georgian tax certificates and income statements translated into Spanish for the Agencia Tributaria, the SAT, AFIP or DIAN at home. The translators on this team have accounting backgrounds and reconcile the numbers in every table before delivery.

Tenders, licenses, customs and the wine trade

Spanish companies bid on Georgian state tenders in energy, water, transport and construction through the State Procurement Agency's Georgian-language system, submitting translated company documents, referencias, technical proposals and avales bancarios within days of the notice; we staff tender projects as a team. Licenses and permits for energy, construction, food production and hospitality are translated for regulators and investors. Trade with Spain and Latin America generates its own paperwork: certificados de origen, EUR.1 movement certificates for Spain, declaraciones de conformidad and CE documentation, DAE excise documents for wine and spirits, certificados fitosanitarios and veterinarios for Georgian agricultural exports, and customs declarations, all translated for exporters, importers and the Revenue Service customs department. Invoices and commercial documents are translated in bulk at reduced rates for regular traders.

Confidentiality, terminology and how corporate projects run

Every translator, editor and courier is bound by a non-disclosure agreement, files are encrypted and access is limited to the assigned team; we sign client-specific NDAs for M&A, litigation and tender work, and we can process data under a GDPR-compliant data processing agreement for Spanish clients and under Mexican, Argentine and Colombian data protection terms for Latin American ones. Corporate clients receive a glossary and translation memory from the first project, so defined terms stay consistent across years of amendments and repeated text is not billed twice. Projects run in a fixed pattern: fixed quote within the hour, a legal or financial specialist plus a reviewer assigned by a project manager, questions returned to you in a single batch, delivery in the original format with tracked changes on request, and notarization and apostille scheduled in parallel with translation. Framework agreements with monthly invoicing and priority notary slots are available for law firms, gestorías and the Spanish-speaking business community in Georgia.
