Authentication of education documents to be used abroad
About authentication
The authentication procedure involves verifying and certifying the authenticity and the legality of an education document and its contents. This procedure is only applicable in relation to those states which require, on the basis of reciprocity, either the Hague Apostille or superlegalization.
We recommend that you contact the competent authorities of the destination country involved in the recognition of education. These institutions contact details may be found on the ENIC-NARIC websites maintained by the network of National Centres for the Recognition and Equivalence of Diplomas.
For the United States of America and Canada, we recommend that you consult the information on the process of recognition of higher education studies through World Education Services (WES).
