appealing esa decision from Spain

It may well be that the Tribunal Service will pay for the costs of translation, however, this is not the same as the situation you are referring to.

The DWP are required to do the translations they did in your example, as the assessment process could not be carried out if they did not, they are under no obligation to do so in connection with an appeal, although this does not mean that they would not.

There is nothing in the legislation that removes the requirement to participate, however, it is difficult to see how your attendance would be reasonable, there are several reasons for Good Cause including; 61.3(b) that the claimant had transport difficulties and that no reasonable alternative was available
