MUET: an English test that needs no translation

The best-known Malaysian language certificate is the Malaysian University English Test (MUET), developed by the Malaysian Examinations Council (MPM) and required for entry to bachelor's programmes at public universities. It has four papers (listening, speaking, reading and writing) and reports a band from 1.0 to 5+. MUET results from 2009 onwards are valid for five years from the result date.

A MUET result statement is in English, so a US university or employer can read it as it is: it needs no translation. If someone asks for one anyway, ask whether they mean a different document. We do not convert MUET bands to IELTS or TOEFL scores; that is for the receiving institution to decide. If a stamp or note on it is in Malay, only that part needs translating.

Proof of Malay, and language-of-instruction letters

Proof of Malay usually comes from school results: Bahasa Melayu is a subject on the SPM certificate, with a grade from A+ to G. If a US employer or language programme wants evidence of Malay, the SPM certificate translation shows that grade as printed. The translation does not describe your level of Malay; it shows the subject, the grade and the year exactly as the certificate does.

More often, a US university or licensing board wants to know the language your degree was taught in. Malaysian universities issue a letter confirming it, often in English; if yours is in Malay, we translate it with its letterhead and stamp. See the Malaysian university diploma page and our Malay page. Ask the receiving office whether it also wants the letter in the original.

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.
