Diploma recognition abroad: how to recognize Ukrainian education in Europe
If you are planning to study, work or immigrate to the EU, you will need notification of a Ukrainian diploma abroad. This is an official procedure for recognizing a Ukrainian diploma in accordance with the standards of the country where you want to use it. The legal marketplace “Consultant” offers support from experienced lawyers who will help you go through this procedure with minimal effort on your part.
Diploma recognition in Poland, the Czech Republic and Germany: what's the difference?
Each country has its own rules:
- Poland: for recognition, you need to contact the relevant university or voivodeship office. Notification is mandatory for work in a specialty or for continuing education.
- Czech Republic: Notification is carried out by ministries or universities. All documents must be translated into Czech and certified.
- Germany: the diploma is checked through the ZAB or Anabin databases. Recognition depends on the level of education, specialty and region.
This is a complex bureaucratic procedure in which it is important to comply with all requirements - and this is where professional legal assistance will be needed.
