Real diploma casework
Awards translated as issued, in every academic system.
These are anonymized orders. Each case shows what the diploma held and the translation decision we made.
Degree title
A law degree that is not a US J.D.
We translated the award exactly as printed and left the US comparison to the evaluator, whose decision that is.
Read the case
Document type
The document said diploma but was not a degree
We rendered it as the retraining certificate it is, hour count included, so no reviewer would read it as a degree.
Read the case
Licensing board
A US-issued diploma that still needed translating
The ceremonial text was translated in full so a mainland licensing board could read the award and the institution.

A note on “100% acceptance”
If a service promises “100% acceptance,” be careful — no one controls USCIS’s decision. What actually protects you is the written remedy: we revise free, or refund in full.

Diploma Translation Cost Calculator
A diploma itself is usually short, so a flat per-page rate and a capped provider often cost about the same. But the transcripts you submit alongside it are word-dense — and that is where a 250-word page cap quietly adds pages. Move the sliders to see how density changes your total at our flat $24.95/page rate (no word cap).
Physical pages in your document
100 sparse600 dense
Typical — most birth, marriage and death certificates
A capped provider counts a “page” as 250 words or less, so one dense physical page is billed as two. We bill the page you actually send.

How much does a certified diploma translation cost?+−
A certified diploma translation costs $24.95 per physical page. A single-page diploma is $24.95, and a front-and-back diploma is $49.90. There is no word cap, and we confirm the page count and total before you pay.
How long does a diploma translation take?+−
A one- or two-page diploma is usually delivered within 24 hours of a clear upload. Diploma supplements, older calligraphic awards, and files sent together with a transcript can take longer, and we name the window before work begins.
Will WES or ECE accept my translated diploma?+−
Credential evaluators ask for a complete, word-for-word English translation of the whole document, and that is what we deliver alongside the source scan and a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy. If a receiving authority rejects the translation for a translation-related reason, we revise it free. If it is still rejected, we refund the translation cost.
Do you evaluate my degree or state its US equivalent?+−
No, and no translator should. Stating that a foreign award equals a US bachelor’s or master’s is a credential evaluation, which agencies such as WES and ECE issue after reviewing your file. We translate the award exactly as printed so the evaluator can make that call.
What languages do you translate diplomas from?+−
We translate diplomas and degree certificates from 65+ languages into English. The pairs with a dedicated page are listed above. If yours is not there, upload the document anyway — the rate and the process are the same.
Do you translate the honors or distinction printed on my diploma?+−
Yes, and they stay next to the award they belong to. Honors, distinction, and the field of study are separate data points to an evaluator, so summarising them away costs you information you paid to have on the page.
What if my university has since changed its name?+−
We translate the institution exactly as printed on your diploma and add a translator note recording the current name. That keeps the document faithful while letting a reviewer connect it to the institution they can verify today.
Do I need to send my transcript as well?+−
Most credential evaluators ask for the diploma and the transcript together, because one proves the award and the other proves the coursework. Send both in one order and they are translated with the same terminology throughout.
Do I need my diploma translation notarized?+−
Credential evaluators and universities generally require certification, not notarization. Some licensing boards ask for both, so we add notarization for $19.95 per order without changing the translated text.
Is there a word cap on a page?+−
No. A page is one physical page of the source document. Many services cap a page at 250 words and rebill a dense page as two or three; we bill the page you upload.
Can I review the translation before it is certified?+−
Yes. You can read the finished translation and request unlimited free corrections before we certify it. If an authority later asks for a translation-related change, we correct the certified file at no charge.
Does my diploma translation need an apostille?+−
An apostille authenticates a signature or seal for use in another Hague Convention country, so a US evaluation or admission does not need one. If a foreign ministry or employer asks for it, we add a physical apostille for $190 per order.
What can I check on my diploma translation before I send it?+−
Four things, and you can check all four yourself. Compare any line of the original diploma with the translation, including the text inside stamps. Put the two documents side by side — same page count, same order, course tables, grades, and totals where the reviewer expects them. Read the Certificate of Accuracy for the complete-and-accurate statement, the competence statement, the signature, date, and company stamp. Then confirm the wording matches what your receiving office publishes. Those four checks are the AcceptReady™ standard, and CertTranslate publishes it in full. Read the AcceptReady™ standard.
Most frequent problems we correct
What gets a translated diploma questioned — and how we prevent it
These are the recurring issues we see in academic packets and in translations clients ask us to review.
01
The degree title is replaced with a US equivalent
Our check: We translate the award exactly as printed and leave equivalency to the evaluator, because an unrequested equivalence claim is the fastest way to have a file questioned.
02
Honors, field of study, or the date conferred is summarised away
Our check: Every line of the award is rendered in full, since evaluators read the field, the honors, and the conferral date as separate data points.
03
The reverse side carrying the registration entry is not submitted
Our check: We ask for both sides before work starts, because on many diplomas the registration number and the registrar signature sit on the back.
04
A former institution name is quietly modernised
Our check: We keep the name printed on the diploma and add a translator note when the institution has since been renamed or merged, so both readings are available.
The standard behind these checks
AcceptReady™ is CertTranslate's published standard for certified translations: complete word-for-word translation, mirrored page layout, signed and stamped Certificate of Accuracy on letterhead, and matched to the receiver's published requirements.
How to check each one yourselfChecked before certification. If an authority later requests a translation-related correction, revisions remain free.
Start my translationCommon filing contexts
When you need a certified diploma translation
A diploma is the award itself, so it travels to whoever needs proof that the degree exists — a credential evaluator, an admissions office, a licensing board, or an employer supporting a petition.
The key is consistency: the name, the institution, and the date conferred should match the transcript and the passport filed alongside it.
WES · ECE
Credential evaluation
The evaluator reads the award and the coursework together, so the diploma and transcript are usually filed as one set.
I-140
Employment-based petitions
The degree supports the qualification claim in an employment petition, and is often reviewed beside the transcript.
Admissions
Graduate and undergraduate applications
Admissions offices check the award, the institution, and the conferral date against the rest of the application.
Boards
Professional licensing
Nursing, medical, engineering, and teaching boards read the award to confirm the training behind a licence application.
Document glossary
Diploma terms, defined
The parts of an academic award that decide how a certified translation is built, whatever language the original is in.
- Certified translation
- A certified translation is a complete English translation accompanied by the translator’s signed statement that the translation is complete and accurate and that the translator is competent to translate.
- Credential evaluation
- A separate service, issued by an agency such as WES or ECE, that states how a foreign award compares to a US one. A translator supplies the text; the evaluator supplies the comparison.
- Degree title
- The name of the award as printed on the diploma. It is translated literally and never replaced with a US degree name, because naming an equivalent is the evaluator’s decision.
- Diploma supplement
- An annex issued with the award that lists the programme, its length, and sometimes the grading system. It is a separate page and is billed as one.
- Diploma vs. transcript
- A diploma records the award; a transcript records the courses and grades behind it. Most evaluators ask for both.
- Registration number
- The identifier tying the award to the institution’s own register. It is copied character-for-character, including any number printed on the reverse.
- Honors and distinction
- A grade of award printed alongside the degree. It is translated as issued and kept beside the degree title rather than merged into it.
- Apostille
- An apostille authenticates the signature or seal on a document for use in another Hague Convention country. For a translation, it certifies the notarization — which is why our apostille add-on includes one.

Russian diplomas often come with a separate diploma supplement that carries the course, grade, or program detail evaluators need for a full review.
Name spelling can shift between older GOST-style transliteration and current passport spelling, so we align the English rendering to the governing identity record when it is provided.
Soviet-era and transition-era credentials may show historical institution names, ministry references, or republic terminology that should be translated exactly as printed rather than normalized into modern wording.
If the evaluator will review the diploma and supplement together, translating the full set in one order is safer than mixing separate files with different terminology choices.
For a detailed guide to Russian-language diplomas from Russia, Soviet-era issuers, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Belarus, see our dedicated Russian diploma translation page.
Soviet-era or regional diploma formats often contain specialized terminology that should be translated literally before any evaluator interpretation.
If the document includes both degree title and qualification category, both fields are preserved as separate translated elements.
Historical institution references are retained exactly, and context notes are added only where needed to avoid misreading by admissions staff.
Russian and Soviet-era diplomas can contain historical institution references and specialized degree terminology.

If the diploma references a supplementary transcript appendix, we note that linkage so admissions officers can review records in the correct order.
For high-stakes deadlines, we recommend uploading diploma and transcript together to avoid terminology drift across separate orders.
