Academic Credentials (WES/IQAS) Translation — Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need certified or notarized translations of my academic credentials?
Certified, unless the receiving body has told you otherwise in writing. Certification — a signed statement of accuracy from the translator — is what ICES (International Credential Evaluation Service) and CES (Comparative Education Service) expect. Notarization adds a notary's seal over the translator's declaration; it changes nothing about the translation itself and costs $60 per document extra, so only order it when it is explicitly required.
What does academic credentials translation cost?
$55 per page is the starting rate for academic credentials in a common language, within a published range of $40–85 CAD/page depending on volume and language. The quote you approve is the price you pay, and the certificate of accuracy is included. A mailed hard copy is $35 per order; the secure PDF is included at no extra cost.
How long does academic credentials translation take?
Standard turnaround is 2–3 business days. Rush delivery in 24 hours adds 20% to the base rate, and same business day service adds 50% when a translator for your language is available. If the translation is for Universities and Colleges, tell us your deadline when you request the quote so we can confirm it is achievable before you pay.
Will IRCC accept my translated academic credentials?
Yes. IRCC does not keep an approved-vendor list; it asks for a full, accurate translation plus a signed translator's declaration, which is what we deliver with every academic credentials translation. The same package is accepted by IQAS (International Qualifications Assessment Service), ICES (International Credential Evaluation Service) and CES (Comparative Education Service).
What do you need from me to translate my academic credentials?
Three things: a clear copy of the academic credentials (photo or scan, with every stamp readable), the language pair, and what the translation is for if there is a deadline attached. We confirm everything in writing before starting, and the certified translation comes back to you by email.
