Hi there,
Thanks for contacting WPML support.

I couldn't find any similar reports or known issues related to the post tags. To remove those duplicates, please create a full backup then try the following steps:

- Go to Posts > Tags
- Switch the admin language to Spanish from the top admin bar
- select the duplicates and delete them

Kind regards,
Mohamed
