Delivery times depend on the length and complexity of the document.

• standard translations are usually completed within 24–72 hours

• sworn translations may take slightly longer, as they involve authorised sworn translators

Delivery times are always agreed in advance so you know exactly what to expect.

Advanced Healthcare Directives

Advance healthcare directives allow you to clearly record your medical wishes in advance, ensuring they are respected in future situations. Bridging Spain provides guidance and support to help you prepare and register your directives in Spain with clarity and confidence.

Advance healthcare directives (also known as “voluntades anticipadas”) are a legal document that allows you to record your medical wishes in advance.

They are used in situations where you may not be able to communicate your decisions yourself, ensuring that healthcare professionals understand and respect your preferences.

The process is handled with care and support at every stage.

1. Preparation of the document

You receive the necessary information and guidance to complete your directives.

2. Review and finalisation

We review the document with you to ensure everything is clear and correctly completed.

3. Registration in Spain

We help organise the appointment and guide you through the official registration process.

This service is designed to make the process as simple and clear as possible.

It includes:

• guidance on completing the document
• translated forms in English (if required)
• support throughout the preparation process
• assistance organising the registration appointment

You can choose between a basic service (document preparation) or full support, where we take care of the entire process.

This service is particularly helpful for international residents living in Spain who want to ensure their wishes are clearly understood.

It may be especially important if:

• you do not have close family in Spain
• your family members do not speak Spanish
• you want clarity and control over future medical decisions
