Can I translate my TEFL certificate?

Yes, a TEFL certificate can usually be translated for use in countries or institutions where documents are required in a local language. The important point is that the translation should normally be attached to, or submitted with, the original certificate rather than replacing it. Employers, schools, visa offices, or education authorities may have different rules about what type of translation they will accept. In many cases, a standard professional translation is enough. However, some organizations may ask for a certified translation, notarized translation, or additional document legalization, depending on the country and the purpose of the application. Because requirements vary widely, it is always best to contact the school, employer, embassy, consulate, or local authority requesting the certificate before paying for a translation service. If you completed your course with ITTT, you should use the official certificate details exactly as they appear on the original document when arranging the translation. Make sure your name, course title, completion date, and certificate number are copied accurately. Keeping both digital and printed copies of the original and translated documents can also make future job applications easier.
