There is no legal requirement with regard to such. Having the translation on stamped or plain paper will not change anything at all in the course of your procedures.
Currently there is a tendency with sworn translations to remove the use of stamped paper (exclusive to notaries), allowing us to reduce the cost of the translation and even print on recycled paper.
It is a physical document, on paper. The paper used may be stamped or not. In addition to the translation of the corresponding document, the sworn translation will bear the signature and personal stamp of the translator who did it, as well as an affidavit on the veracity of the translation.
A sworn translation lacks nothing. If this is the case, try to ascertain what is missing from your original documents.
If the sworn translation is signed in Spain and is going to a different country, find out if it needs recognition from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and/or the Consulate of the said country in Spain. Normally this is only required for documentation regarding the constitution of a company outside of Spain, in all other cases the sworn translation is usually accepted as is.
