Frequently asked questions about translations of high school diploma

Why do I need a certified translation for my high school diploma?

A high school diploma is considered an official document and is often requested by foreign universities and employers. The certification of the translation by stamp and signature is necessary in most cases in order for the certificate to be recognised abroad. This is the only way for the recipient to know that the content has been translated accurately. To find out whether you require a certified translation, please check with your new university or employer.

Where can I have my high school diploma translated?

You should always have your high school diploma translated by a specialised translation agency. At our agency, the translators whom we employ to translate your certificate have passed a state examination and taken an oath before a court or an authority for domestic affairs. They produce a certified translation in the desired target language and verify it with a signature and stamp so that the document is also recognised in other countries. We specialise in exactly this type of translation at Beglaubigung24.

How much does the certified translation of my high school diploma cost?

We can provide you with a certified translation of your high school diploma starting at €53.90 per page. Translation by one of our sworn translators and official verification of the translation’s quality and accuracy through certification are included in the price. The language combination and the number of pages also influence the final price.

Who translates and certifies high school diplomas?

Official documents, which include high school diploma, usually need to be translated by sworn translators. They are state-certified and have taken an oath before a regional or higher regional court or an authority for domestic affairs. This authorises these translators to translate and certify official documents, certificates and testimonials. In German, sworn translators are also referred to as “beeidigte [or] ermächtige Übersetzer:innen”.

How do I set the number of pages?  

A single page means one side of one sheet of paper – irrespective of the number of words on that page. The front and back sides of a double-sided document are considered two separate pages. All relevant pages in the original document are counted for the translation. The ‘number of pages’ comprises the total number of individual pages. Learn more here.

Will my data and information contained in the documents be kept confidential?

Of course, we handle all data we receive from you or from your documents with the utmost confidentiality - you can be sure of that! Because: In addition to certifications for translation services (ISO 17100) and quality management (ISO 9001), our service has an excellent information security management system according to ISO/IEC 27001.

Next stop: Going abroad – with a certified translation of your high school diploma

  • Finished school and want to go abroad after graduation? No matter if you plan to study somewhere else, start an apprenticeship or work directly. Most likely you will have to show a certified translation of your German Abitur certificate. Maybe the secretary's office of the new university needs a certificate of study or the new employer doesn't understand what you have done in school. Depending on where you are going, we will translate and certify your diploma - including stamp and signature by our sworn translators - into and from numerous languages such as English, French and Spanish.

    What we do not do, by the way, is translate your grades into another grading system. Some countries use different grading systems than we do in Germany (1/"very good", 2/"good" etc. or 15, 14, 13 etc. points), for example in England or the USA they use letters (A, B, C etc.). We are not allowed to adjust your grades and translate all grades literally. In this case, a "very good" becomes a "very good".

  • Your school days are long past, but you still need your high school diploma translated?

    In most cases, people will need a certified translation of their high school diploma immediately after graduation. But that’s not always the case. For example, if you are applying for an internship abroad during your university studies, your school-leaving certificate is still your most recent and probably highest qualification. And it’s also certainly something any employer would want to be able to read. You may need a certified translation for this purpose – even 1-2 years (or more) after finishing school. So always find out in advance which documents you’ll need to translate and submit for an application. One thing is certain: No matter how long ago you finished your schooling, we’ll always be happy to provide a certified translation of your diploma for you.

  • Making sure there’s nothing holding you back – fair prices for students

    The Abitur, also known as the general higher education entrance qualification, is your ticket to studying at a college or university both in Germany and abroad. If you have chosen this path, you should not let anything stop you. Especially not unnecessarily high costs. For students, whether at university or secondary school, money is often tight anyway. We know this dilemma well, which is why we offer certified translations of school-leaving certificates at student-friendly prices. And that’s a promise.

  • Safe, secure, sure – triple protection for your future needs

    Deciding to go abroad to study or work directly after graduating from high school? That’s a big step. You won’t want to take any chances here. That’s why we make every effort to ensure that your certificate translation is impeccable and is recognised and accepted everywhere in the new language. How do we do this? Here at Beglaubigung24, we have triple ISO certification ensuring the quality of your school-leaving certificate translation: for our translation services (ISO 17100:2015), our quality management (ISO-9001:2015) and our information security (ISO/IEC 27001:2013).

  • Why do I need a certified translation of my high school diploma?

    You must usually have your high school diploma translated and certified in one of the following cases:

    - Studies abroad (bachelor’s or master’s)
    - Semester abroad
    - Student exchange
    - Work abroad

    In situations like these, you often also need other certified translations, such as of your school reports, internship certificates or employment references. You can simply place your order for these in our shop.

  • How are the grades on the high school diploma translated?

    At Beglaubigung24 we translate your high school diploma 1:1. This means that we translate the content of the document from the language of the original into the desired target language without adapting the content or form and certify the translation with a stamp and signature. The grades are not transferred to another grading system in the process.

  • Can I translate my high school diploma myself?

    Of course, you can translate your school-leaving certificate on your own or use an online tool to create the translation, but you should be warned that public authorities, schools, universities and most employers won’t generally recognise such a translation! In order to make sure that all achievements and grades are translated correctly, you generally require a certified translation of your school-leaving certificate to guarantee that a sworn translator has prepared the translation and that the content of the translated certificate matches the original document.
