Certified German diploma translation for UK study, work, and visas

Diplomas, degree certificates, and academic transcripts often determine eligibility for visas, jobs, and admissions. Our certified German to English diploma translations are prepared by native‑level linguists with academic and legal expertise, ensuring terminology, grading scales, and course titles are translated with precision for clear evaluation by British and international authorities.

For UK use, we provide a certification statement signed and dated by the translator, issued on Kings of Translation letterhead with contact details. This package is widely accepted by the UK Home Office, British universities, professional bodies, and employers. For international applications, our certified format is recognised by many authorities worldwide, including immigration offices and universities in multiple countries.

Ordering is simple: upload a scan or photo of your diploma and any supplements, select service level, and confirm your deadline. We format the translation to reflect the original layout, reproduce seals and stamps as descriptions, and deliver a secure PDF. If needed, we can post a printed, stamped copy within the UK or ship internationally.

Clients choose us for consistent quality and personal support. Kings of Translation maintains an ATA‑affiliated team and BBB A+ credentials, and we’re known for attentive customer care with a 98% return rate. If you require related academic documents, our team can also translate transcripts and course descriptions within the same order for a uniform presentation.

Turnaround is typically 24–48 hours for short diplomas. Larger academic record sets can be completed within 2–4 business days, with express delivery available.

Not sure if you need notarisation? Some authorities may request notarised certification. We can arrange notarisation in the UK and advise on whether your target institution requires it. For immigration to other countries, our translations are often accepted as provided, but we can adapt the certification format to meet specific jurisdictional expectations.

Your data stays private. We use encrypted systems for file transfer and maintain strict confidentiality protocols for personal documents. Every translation undergoes quality checks by a second linguist familiar with German educational terminology, ensuring grades, titles, academic honours, and subject names are consistently rendered.

If your relocation also involves travel documents, our team handles passport translation and other identity records so your submission is consistent across all files.
