The degree certificate
Under the Degree Conferral Act, Taiwan has four degree levels: the associate degree (副學士), awarded by junior colleges and universities, and the bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees, awarded by universities. Each university sets the names of its degrees and issues the degree certificate (學位證書), which states the degree, the department and the date of conferral in Minguo years, under the university's seal.
Because universities name degrees themselves, the same field can appear under different titles. We translate the degree name literally, for example 理學士 as Bachelor of Science, and do not substitute a US equivalent; an evaluator decides equivalence. A degree obtained by fraud is revoked and the certificate publicly cancelled under the same act, so an evaluator may check a certificate with the university.
Theses, transcripts and authentication
Master's and doctoral theses must be deposited with the National Central Library as well as the university library, which is how a thesis title on a transcript can be checked. Evaluators usually ask for the degree certificate together with the transcript; see the Taiwanese academic transcript page. Names follow your passport spelling. We translate the thesis title literally and keep any English title the university printed beside it.
Taiwan is not a party to the Apostille Convention. For use abroad, a document is usually certified by a Taiwanese notary and then authenticated by the Bureau of Consular Affairs, whose authentication certificate, an A4 sheet modelled on the apostille format since 2016, can be checked online. USCIS does not require this; some licensing boards do. See the Chinese diploma page for mainland China and our Chinese 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.
Frequently asked questions
My diploma is called a degree certificate.
That is the Taiwanese document. We translate it with the degree name exactly as written.
Will you call my degree a US bachelor's?
No. We translate the title literally; an evaluator decides equivalence.
Does my diploma need an apostille?
Taiwan does not issue apostilles. USCIS does not need one; ask any other office what it wants.
Is acceptance by universities, colleges and schools guaranteed?
Yes. Our certified translations are guaranteed to be accepted by universities, colleges and schools in the United States — and by USCIS, the NVC, courts, government agencies and employers — or your money back. The guarantee covers the translation itself, not the original document or the admission decision, and it covers credential evaluation agencies such as WES and ECE as well. Full terms are in our refund policy.
