Translations of Documents

We are intending to retire to Spain soon

My wife has an Irish Passport and I have a UK Passport

I have just had our Marriage Certificate legalised by the FCDO

Does anyone know if I will also need to have the certificate officially translated in order to use it to claim family member residency in the future?

Thanks

And apostilled as well, as UK is no longer in EU, but only if you were married in UK. not Ireland.

Mmmmm..... I thought a "Joint Bank" account was sufficient with some credit history?

As a family member (OP) of an EU citizen (OP's wife), who needs to have the funds in the account? Will joint be allowed... or does the wife need to show that she has the funds to support her (husband) family member?
