A diploma and a certificate

Secondary education in Cabo Verde runs from the 9th to the 12th year. Under the 2022 assessment decree, students complete it by passing every subject and the Área de Projeto with at least 10 out of 20, after national final exams in the subjects assessed externally. The school director then issues, on paper or electronically, two documents: a diploma attesting completion, which also gives the area completed and the final mark, and a certificate listing each subject with its final mark and the national exam marks.

The certificate also records the student's part in school bodies and in artistic, scientific, cultural, sports and citizenship activities, and a companion decree adds the level reached in the National Qualifications Framework. The final mark is the simple average of the subject marks, rounded to a whole number. We translate both documents in full, including the qualification level, the area name and every mark exactly as printed.

Languages and older diplomas

Portuguese is the language of instruction, described in the curriculum decree as a vehicular language that is not the pupils' mother tongue; French and English are compulsory from the 5th to the 12th year. A record therefore usually lists Portuguese and two foreign languages, which we translate by subject name. The State Department notes that older diplomas were issued after internal completion tests or a national test, that an equivalency exam exists for those who left school, and that school records are verified through the school's director.

Diplomas issued before the 2022 reform follow older formats and are translated as they stand. Students may also sit the national exams as external candidates (autopropostos), and their certificates show those exam marks; we translate them the same way. The name on the diploma should match the passport; if it differs, we translate as printed and add a note. Admission to a public university in Cabo Verde requires an entrance exam. See the academic transcript and university diploma pages, and our Portuguese page.

What USCIS requires

Under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), a foreign-language document must be accompanied by a complete English translation and the translator's certification that it is accurate. Every seal, stamp and marginal note is part of the document, so every one is translated.

State agencies set their own rules — see government agencies — and what our certification states is on this page.

How it works

Upload a photo or a scan of your document, pick the language pair and check out online. You never have to mail originals: a legible copy is all we need.

A professional human translator, never machine translation, translates the document word for word and mirrors the layout of the original. Every certified translation ships with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy that meets the requirements of USCIS, courts and universities.

Your translation is delivered digitally, usually within 24 hours for documents of one to three pages, and same-day delivery is available. If anything needs adjusting, we revise it.

Certified vs. standard translation

A certified translation is a word-for-word translation accompanied by a signed statement attesting to its accuracy and completeness. It is what official bodies require: USCIS, courts, universities and government agencies. Certified translations are $24.95 per page, where one sheet of your document is one page, with no word cap.

A standard translation is the same professional human translation without the certificate, for when you only need to understand the content or for internal or informal use. It is billed at the same $24.95 per page with no word cap.
