Diploma Equivalency

How diploma recognition works

Each country has its own body that compares a foreign diploma with its national qualifications. The guides below summarise the organisation in charge, the steps, the documents to prepare, the usual processing time and the fees.

Is an equivalency always required?

Not always. It is usually required for regulated professions, some immigration programs and admission to certain universities. Always check the official website of the organisation before paying any fee.

Which documents should I prepare?

Typically the diploma, transcripts, an identity document and certified translations. Each guide lists the exact documents for that country.
