Accepted by the Irish institutions that decide academic & professional applications
Certified transcript translation for students and professionals in Dublin, Cork, Galway, Limerick and across Ireland — a fast, secure and fully online service, so there's no need to search for a translator near you or visit an office.
The single most useful thing to understand before you order: in Ireland, translation and qualification recognition are two separate steps — and getting that distinction right is where most transcript translations quietly fail.
A certified academic transcript translation is a complete, accurate English rendering of your transcript of records, issued with a signed Certificate of Accuracy from a qualified, professional translator. That signed declaration is what gives it official standing — it names a traceable, ITIA-affiliated translator and reproduces every element of the original: your institution, programme, module titles, ECTS credits, grades, classification and the registrar's seal.
Crucially, your results are rendered exactly as awarded — never rounded, re-scaled or "converted" to an Irish grade. Deciding whether your degree maps onto NFQ Level 7, 8 or 9 is the job of NARIC Ireland (part of Quality and Qualifications Ireland), not the translator. Converting marks is one of the fastest routes to a rejected application across Irish admissions and recognition desks.
When a regulator such as the Medical Council, NMBI or Engineers Ireland — or an institution abroad — needs extra assurance, your translation can be notarised by an Irish Notary Public or apostilled by the Department of Foreign Affairs. We tell you upfront which level your application actually needs, so you order what's correct and nothing you don't.
The five things that decide acceptance
A dated declaration from a named, qualified translator.
Marks, GPA and classification — never re-scaled or converted.
Module titles, credits and ECTS rendered correctly.
Mirrored so a reviewer can check every line side by side.
Certified, notarised or apostilled — matched to your authority.
A transcript in another language sits between you and almost every academic and professional door in Ireland. Here's where a certified transcript translation is required — and what each authority checks.
Irish universities and the CAO assess prior study from the transcript itself, so university transcript translation must render every module, credit and grade accurately enough to judge your level at a glance.
Before NARIC Ireland can compare your qualification to an Irish award, it needs a faithful certified translation for QQI — grades and credits intact — so the comparability statement is based on your real results.
The Medical Council, NMBI, Engineers Ireland, the Teaching Council and CORU verify your training from the transcript — where precise subject names and clinical or technical hours decide registration.
Irish employers and recruiters request a certified transcript translation to confirm a qualification for a corporate or business role — a clean, official document clears the verification stage.
Master's and PhD admissions weigh your classification and research modules closely, so an accurate degree transcript translation of your final-year results can directly shape an offer.
Student-visa files and Erasmus or credit-transfer applications rely on your transcript to prove prior study — so mark sheet translation and module equivalence must read cleanly.
For an Irish reviewer to trust your record, the translation must respect the education system behind it. A grading scale read wrong or an ECTS credit dropped quietly distorts how your studies are judged. We match every transcript to a native, bilingual specialist who knows its system — so your Polish, Chinese or Arabic transcript translation reads accurately, first time.
Translating a transcript is detailed work — dozens of modules, grades and credits across several pages. Our acceptance rate comes from a second specialist who checks every line after the first draft, catching the inconsistencies that make admissions teams hesitate. Here's the fast, four-step path.
Upload a clear scan of every page via the form, WhatsApp or email. We confirm the language, authority and page count, then send a clear, per-page quote in minutes.
A native, ITIA-affiliated, human translator who understands your country's education system renders every module, credit and grade — faithfully, page-for-page.
An independent reviewer confirms each grade is preserved exactly, module titles are accurate and no credit or page is missing — then it's certified.
Your signed certified transcript translation arrives in 24–48 hours, formatted for direct upload to CAO, PAC, university and professional-body portals — posted hard copy on request.
That second-reviewer step is why Irish admissions offices accept our transcripts without sending them back — your application is judged on your real results, never a mistranslated module.
An official transcript translation mirrors your original line for line, with grades preserved exactly as awarded and credits presented cleanly against the ECTS system. Here's the shape yours will take — from real examples we've handled.
No surprises and nothing missing — here's precisely what lands in your inbox, secure and upload-ready, with every certified academic transcript translation we deliver in Ireland.
All modules, grades, credits and classification rendered in full — nothing summarised or skipped.
A dated declaration from a named, qualified translator that makes your transcript official and verifiable.
Marks, GPA and classification reproduced precisely as awarded, original scale noted — never converted.
A tamper-evident, confidential PDF sized and named for direct submission to Irish portals.
A wet-ink hard copy posted anywhere in Ireland, or a sealed envelope when required.
Add Irish Notary Public certification or a DFA apostille whenever your transcript heads abroad.
A transcript usually runs to several pages, so we price per page rather than a vague flat fee — a short one-page record never subsidises a ten-page degree. Every figure below is an all-in estimate, and your final price is confirmed and sent to you before any work begins.

Translating your transcript and degree certificate together keeps names consistent and earns a more competitive rate.
Any service can put your transcript into English. Far fewer grasp that an Irish university or regulator judges it on the accuracy of its grades, credits and course names — and fewer still preserve your results faithfully instead of quietly "converting" them.
Rendered exactly as awarded, original scale noted. Assessing equivalence is NARIC's job — we never blur that line.
From Bologna-system degrees to GPA and 10-point scales — yours won't be unfamiliar territory.
No anonymous stamps — every translation carries an accredited translator's name, the accountability Irish authorities insist on.
CAO dates don't move. Standard turnaround is 24–48 hours, with fast same-day when you're racing a deadline.
If an institution ever queries your translation, we revise and reissue free — it isn't finished until it's accepted.
Encrypted, access-controlled, confidential and deleted after delivery — fully GDPR-compliant.
