Submitting a letter of graduation to China — how must it be translated and certified?

What the enquirer needs to know is “Submitting a letter of graduation to China”, so the answer below starts with what this case actually needs before setting out the general rules. Some institutions accept documents only when sent directly by the school, so confirm the channel before translating. Degree titles, field names and grading scales follow the issuing institution's official wording rather than a fresh interpretation. When several certification layers are required, start with the slowest one. For documents going abroad, include international shipping time in the plan. High-resolution photos of seals and signatures help when the destination asks for re-verification. If the receiving body confirmed its requirements by email, keep that message with the file. A key variable is the filing channel (in person, agent or online), which sets the copy format to prepare. The most frequent cause of delay in this group is missing supporting documents on the first submission. Before starting, confirm with the receiving body whether it wants an original, a certified copy or a certified translation, then check that names are spelled identically to the passport or ID card on every page, then verify the source document is still within any validity window the recipient applies. The specifics here are document type: Graduation; destination: Cn, and those decide which translation and certification level applies.

A Thai educational document intended for overseas use is normally translated into the language the destination requires, then legalised by the Legalisation Division of the Department of Consular Affairs, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and where the destination requires it, further legalised by that country's embassy or consulate. Many credential-evaluation bodies require the institution itself to send documents in a sealed envelope or through the institution's own electronic channel; an applicant or translator copy is not accepted as a substitute, so the body's own handbook must be read before translation is ordered. Thailand deposited its instrument of accession to the Hague Apostille Convention on 30 June 2026, but the Convention is not yet in force for Thailand, so consular legalisation through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the relevant embassy remains the working route; always confirm the current requirement with the receiving authority before filing. Cost and lead time depend on page count, language pair and the certification steps the receiving authority requires, so every file is quoted before work starts.
