A university certificate confirms a specific circumstance as of its issue date, such as current student status, enrolment for a semester, degree programme, year of study, mode of attendance or completed placement. It is not a diploma and does not replace an academic transcript. For use abroad, the translation must accurately convey the certified fact and the issuer's official name.
What exactly does the certificate confirm?
The answer lies in the operative certification statement, not only in the document title. It may confirm that a person is a student, is enrolled for a particular academic year or semester, follows a named programme and degree, or has completed a placement. The translation does not broaden that stated fact.
Is it the same as a diploma or academic transcript?
No. A diploma confirms completion of a degree, while an academic transcript normally lists courses, grades, credits and study periods. A university certificate confirms a particular current or administrative circumstance. If the recipient requests several documents, each is translated under its own exact title and function.
Which details do we check before translation?
We verify the student's names and registration number, the higher education institution and faculty, programme, degree, year, semester, mode of attendance and the certified fact. We also review the outgoing reference, date, stated purpose, signature, seal and any visible electronic verification feature.
What should I send for an exact quotation?
Customers send a legible copy of every side or the original electronic file. Customers state the destination country, language, receiving institution, number of copies and required date. Customers include any written instructions from the recipient so that the translation format and any subsequent authentication can be defined correctly from the outset.
Are a diploma, supplement or transcript also required?
Only when the recipient asks for them or the certificate expressly refers to them. We do not add documents by assumption. When a set includes a diploma, diploma supplement, academic transcript or placement certificate, repeated names, programmes, dates and official institution names are checked for consistency throughout.
Is an apostille or legalization always required?
No. The requirement depends on the destination, the document's type and origin, applicable international arrangements and the recipient's rules. An apostille may be relevant for documents issued by Bulgarian higher education institutions under the current administrative process, but the correct route is selected only after the actual document is reviewed.
How is an electronic certificate handled?
Customers send the original electronic file rather than a photograph or printout so that the electronic signature, verification code or validation address can be examined. The recipient decides whether it accepts an electronic document and in which form. Any need for a paper version is clarified separately before processing.
How are price and timeframe calculated?
They depend on the language, volume, layout, file quality, type of authentication, number of copies and delivery method. After review, La Fit Trans provides a specific price and realistic schedule. The order may be started online or through a selected office, with the agreed scope stated clearly.
