Who we transcribe Spanish for
Spanish is spoken by more than 500 million people. Teams on both sides of the Atlantic rely on us when the transcript has to be exact.
Legal and immigration
Depositions, interviews and recorded evidence in Spanish, transcribed verbatim for attorneys and case files, with every speaker identified.
Market research
Focus groups and consumer interviews from Mexico, Spain, Colombia or the US Hispanic market, delivered ready for analysis.
Customer and sales calls
Recorded calls and voice messages in Spanish turned into searchable text for quality review, training and compliance.
Transcribed by native Spanish speakers
Every file is handled by a native Spanish-speaking transcriber who has passed our language and style tests. They are used to the accents and vocabulary of Spain, Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, the Caribbean and the US.
Mixed recordings are common, so speakers who switch between Spanish and English mid-sentence are transcribed as they speak. Tell us the main variant when you brief our team and we keep spelling consistent across all your files.
Proofread Spanish transcripts, 99% accurate
Each transcript is written and checked by a professional against the audio, including accents and tildes, proper names, places and technical terms. Every speaker is labelled and timestamps are added throughout.
Choose clean read for reports and articles, or verbatim for legal and qualitative research work where every hesitation matters.
Spanish transcripts back within 24 hours
Standard turnaround for Spanish is 24 hours. If you are working against a deadline, our rush option delivers up to 50% faster with the same human accuracy.
For high-volume programs, such as weekly call reviews or multi-country research, we agree a delivery plan with you so transcripts arrive when your team needs them.
Confidential handling for sensitive Spanish recordings
HappyScribe is SOC 2 Type II certified and GDPR compliant. Your Spanish files are encrypted in transit and at rest, and everyone who works on them is bound by a confidentiality agreement (NDA).
Recordings of clients, patients and research participants stay in your private workspace, where you decide who can view, edit and share each transcript.

Spanish transcription FAQ
How long does Spanish transcription take?
24 hours for standard Spanish orders. A rush option is available when you need it faster, and recurring or large projects get a delivery schedule agreed with our team.
Do you handle Latin American and European Spanish?
Yes. Our native transcribers work with Spanish from Spain, Mexico, Central and South America, the Caribbean and the US. Let us know the main variant and any local terms so spelling stays consistent.
Can you transcribe recordings that mix Spanish and English?
Yes. Code-switching is common in US and bilingual recordings, and our transcribers write each passage in the language it is spoken in. Mention it when you brief our team so we assign the right people.
Do you offer Spanish to English translated transcripts?
Yes. We can transcribe your Spanish audio and deliver a professional English translation of the transcript as well. Ask our sales team to include it in your quote.
Is my Spanish audio kept confidential?
Yes. HappyScribe is SOC 2 Type II certified and GDPR compliant, files are encrypted in transit and at rest, and every linguist who works on your Spanish recordings is bound by a confidentiality agreement. Enterprise teams can also add SSO and access controls for their workspace.
