Diplomas are ornamental by design — calligraphic type, seals, signatures, borders — and the ornament is part of the evidence. A plain-text translation of a degree certificate reads like a claim; a layout-faithful one reads like the document. Reglyph erases the source text and re-typesets the English inside the original design, so the university name, degree title and honors sit where the certifying eye expects them.

Layout-preserving

What employers and evaluators expect

Employers and licensing boards usually want the diploma and the transcript together — the diploma proves the award, the transcript proves the content. Credential evaluators require translations that mirror the originals for both. Degree titles are translated descriptively without asserting equivalence; mapping a foreign degree onto a local one is the evaluator's determination.

Who needs diplomas & degrees translated

The situations people most often bring diplomas & degrees to us for — each one keeps the original layout, seals and tables.

  • Job applications and background checks
  • Credential evaluation with transcripts
  • Professional licensing boards
  • Graduate-school applications

How long are these documents?

A diploma is a single page, but applications pair it with a multi-page transcript and sometimes a degree supplement. Translate the set in one job so institution names and degree titles are worded identically everywhere.

Diploma & Degree Certificate Translation — frequently asked

Is my degree converted to a US/UK equivalent?

No. The degree title is translated faithfully (with the original in parentheses where helpful); equivalence is a credential evaluator's decision, not a translation step.

Are seals and signatures kept?

Yes — they're preserved as graphics in place, with adjacent text translated where legible.

Should I translate the transcript too?

Almost always yes; most receiving institutions want both. See the academic transcript page for how course tables are handled.

The diploma uses decorative fonts — can OCR read it?

Standard calligraphic print OCRs well. Extremely stylized lettering may need touch-up, which the side-by-side view makes easy to spot.
