When is it necessary to get a certified translation for your degree?
At present, degree certified translation service, especially English translation for high school diplomas, is in high demand due to the increase in popularity of activities such as: Applying for a scholarship, studying and working abroad, applying for a visa, or sending documents to foreign government agencies.
