Uk naric

Hi all
I am applying to come to UK to enter a civil partnership with my UK partner.
I am from Argentina, and to make myself more employable ion the UK, am thinking of getting my high school and college certificates transcribed by UK NARIC - anyone dealt with these guys before?
Do they just translate University degree qualifications?
And also what is the best service to apply for
Statement of Comparability (£55)
or
Statement of Comparability with Translation Waiver (£91)
????

Thanks :T

  • This was a few years ago but as a former graduate recruiter, we would use UK Naric to translate student grades. However, I believe the onus has now transferred to the graduates themselves. In terms of the service to use, you might be better off asking them directly to explain the difference between the two services and what the benefits are. Only then can you really make that informed decision.

    Best of luck.

    If you pay the cheaper fee for just the statement of comparability then you have to provide NARIC with a certified translation of the certificate which will also cost you, so it's easier to pay the higher fee and have them translate it themselves. A statement of comparability does not translate the certificate but simply states what the comparable British qualification would be.
  • The UK NARIC Statement of Comparability is an officially recognised document that confirms the recognition of an overseas qualification and its comparable level in the UK, irrespective of it being an academic, vocational or professional award. It is used by universities, colleges, employers and Government departments and agencies forming part of their decision-making processes. A Statement of Comparability can be used to help support applications made under Tiers 1 and 2 the Points Based System for immigration in to the UK.
    A Statement of Comparability states, in English, what your overseas qualifications equate to in the UK.

    The UK NARIC Statement of Comparability with Translation Waiver, is offered to assist applications for a Statement of Comparability by removing the additional time and expense of acquiring a translation. Selected countries only.

    Many Thanks

    UK NARIC, if you are a company rep, can you contact MSE towers please to get yourself validated? This is so posters know it is a proper company rep and not someone pretending to be and giving out duff info.

    Thanks!
