We certify that this long-form certificate

"certificación literal" is the certificate that contains all the relevant information in birth, marriage or death certs while the "abstracto" contains only the basic information related to the same. If you go onto the website of the Civil Register of Spain, they will offer you the option of ordering either a "literal" or "extracto" of your certificate if your marriage or birth cert is registered there.

agree philgoddard : You could choose a synonym for certify, such as confirm, to avoid the semi-repetition.

We certify that the present literal certification...

You could just use a very literal translation in this case. Hope it helps :)
Peer comment(s):

neutral AllegroTrans : not "the present" (which sounds like Translationese) but simply "this"// I beg to differ, the "value" here is 100% identical and it is the term as used in English legal drafting

Could also work. I always think it's best to try retain the original value, and keep the wording as similar as you can.
