Swedish diploma
A university or an employer abroad asked for your Swedish diploma. The school prints the examensbevis. We add an authorised translation and place the apostille on the original, in one case.
The diploma
The examensbevis is the diploma. The betyg is the list of courses and grades. Admissions offices often want both, and they are two documents. A screenshot, or a copy you print at home, is not a paper anyone can stamp.
Translation
A translator authorised by Kammarkollegiet puts the diploma into the language that office uses. A standard document starts at 1 495 kr. The language follows the country, not a guess.
Apostille
A notary public places the apostille on the examensbevis. The stamp says the document is genuine. It does not translate a line, and it does not judge the degree. Apostille starts at 1 595 kr.
Some offices want the translation alone. Some want only the stamp. When they want both, the package is the short way through. A transcript and a Diploma Supplement can sit in the same case.

Translation and apostille, together Best value
We take the original once. The translation and the apostille run side by side, and the papers come back ready to file.

An examensbevis shows that you graduated. A betyg lists the courses and the grades. A university abroad almost always asks for both. If the school gave you a Diploma Supplement, it can travel with them. Send the letter from the office, and we will say which papers it actually names.
The letter rarely says examensbevis. Degree certificate and diploma mean the examensbevis. Transcript of records means the betyg. A Diploma Supplement is the European annex, often already in English. The same case can hold all three, but each paper is translated on its own.
The diploma comes from the school, municipal adult education, a higher vocational college, or the university. It is not a personbevis from Skatteverket, and it is not a police extract.
We do not decide whether the degree is enough. The office that asked for it does. We put the language and the stamp on the paper the school already issued.
Send the paper original. The apostille sits on each original they want stamped, not on the translation. If they want both the diploma and the transcript stamped, that is two originals.
A laminated diploma usually cannot take an apostille, because the stamp will not sit on the plastic. Ask the school for a new original. A PDF you print at home is a copy, and the copy is the wrong paper.
From the school or the university. If their letter is vague, send it to us before you order the wrong transcript.
We name the language, and we say whether that country takes an apostille or wants the embassy route.
The apostille lands on the Swedish original. The translation is done by a translator authorised by Kammarkollegiet. Both come back to you.
An examensbevis from a Swedish school or university is an official document, so the apostille goes straight onto the original. A certificate from a private course, or a copy, is a different paper and may need a notary first. A private power of attorney is almost always notarised before the apostille. If your paper needs that step, we say so before anything starts.
The country decides between an apostille and a route through the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs and that country’s embassy. Pick the recipient and you land on the right package.

Not if they want an apostille. The stamp is placed on the original from the school. A printout is a copy, and most universities will not take that copy in place of the original.
No. The examensbevis is the diploma. The betyg is the list of courses and grades. Admissions offices often want both. They can sit in one case, and each one is translated on its own.
Usually no. The apostille has to sit on the paper, and the plastic is in the way. Ask the school for a new original before you send it to us.
Usually no, when the school or the university issued the original. A notary public can apostille it directly. A copy, or a private course certificate, may need a notary first. A private power of attorney is almost always notarised before the apostille.
Yes. English is the usual language for the USA, the United Kingdom, and universities that ask for English. The translator is authorised by Kammarkollegiet. The country you pick below names the language for that case.
Authorised translation starts at 1 495 kr. Apostille starts at 1 595 kr. The package with both starts at 2 395 kr. Countries without apostille, such as Thailand, China and the United Arab Emirates, go through the embassy. That package starts at 3 495 kr. An extra transcript is its own document.
Yes. The apostille stays on the diploma, and the diploma comes back with the translation.
Send the letter from the university or the employer. We will say whether the examensbevis is enough, whether the betyg has to come with it, and whether that country wants an apostille or the embassy, before you order the wrong paper from the school.
