Certified translation of a diploma supplement

A diploma supplement or academic transcript lists courses, grades, and credits — often required alongside the diploma for admissions or recognition abroad. We translate and certify it with the PRAVIS bureau seal, and we explain when a recognition office may ask for a sworn translator or an apostille.

When a diploma-supplement translation is needed

Universities often ask for the supplement or transcript with the diploma for credit evaluation. Employers and recognition bodies use it to verify the programme content. Multi-page tables of courses and grades are our most common education orders after the diploma itself.

Bureau seal vs. sworn translation vs. apostille

Our default is a certified translation with the PRAVIS bureau seal: accurate rendering, company stamp, signed statement, and reference number — the same approach as our certified-translation service.

If the supplement is submitted for formal Anerkennung or ministry recognition in Poland, Germany, or Spain, a sworn translation may be required — we advise based on the office you name. An apostille legalises the original in the country of issue; it is separate from translation and not issued by PRAVIS — see also our apostille support. Final requirements are set by the receiving institution.

How the process works from Wrocław

Send a clear scan or photo of every page (seals and annotations visible) via the quote form or office.pravis@gmail.com. We reply within 5–7 minutes with a fixed price, turnaround, and whether a bureau seal is likely enough or a sworn route is safer for your destination — for example Poland, Germany, or Spain.

After confirmation we translate, format to mirror the original where useful, and certify with the PRAVIS bureau seal. You receive a certified PDF; we can mail or courier a stamped paper original worldwide from our Wrocław office.

What we need from you

Clear scans of all pages (including legends and grading scales), target language, and the receiving school or office if known. We preserve table structure so recipients can cross-check entries.

No guarantees we cannot make

We do not guarantee that a particular school, registry, university, consulate, employer, or other office will accept a given certification format. Requirements vary by country and change over time. We follow standard bureau-seal practice for certified translation, flag known sworn or apostille cases, and leave the final decision to the receiving authority.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need both the diploma and the supplement translated?

Often yes — many universities and recognition offices ask for both. Send both scans; we quote them together or separately as you prefer.

Do I need an apostille as well as a translation?

Sometimes. An apostille authenticates the original for use abroad under the Hague Convention; it is issued in the country of origin, not by PRAVIS. Many everyday recipients only ask for a certified translation. If your checklist mentions apostille, we can advise on the typical sequence.

Will this translation be accepted by my school, office, or consulate?

Often yes for everyday private and school use with a bureau seal — but acceptance is always decided by the receiving institution. Tell us the country (e.g. Poland, Germany, Spain) and office if you know them; we recommend honestly before you order.

Will you convert my grades to another country's scale?

No. We translate the grades and scale as printed on the original. Equivalency is decided by the receiving university or recognition office.

How fast can I get a quote?

Usually within 5–7 minutes of receiving a clear scan at office.pravis@gmail.com or via the form. Translation turnaround depends on length and language pair.
