How far must an academic transcript be translated and legalised to be accepted for a government scholarship?
Australia and New Zealand commonly require a NAATI certified translation, which we produce in the same file as the legalisation work.
The approach receiving authorities accept is this: australia and New Zealand commonly require a NAATI certified translation, which we produce in the same file as the legalisation work. European states, Japan, Korea and China may require their own official language or a second embassy attestation. Send scans to LINE @NAATI or contact@naati.ltd and the team will map the exact certification route before any work starts.
