Using a Dutch diploma in the United States.
Need a Dutch diploma for a US university, employer, licensing board or credential evaluation? I help review whether the recipient needs the diploma, transcript, apostille, certified translation or additional education records.
Choose the route that matches your document
Select the route based on whether your original Dutch diploma is already available.
I already have the document
Use the Document Route Check when the original diploma, transcript or diploma supplement is already in your possession and you need the correct Dutch-side route reviewed.
The document still needs to be requested or collected
Use the collection route when the original diploma or supporting education document is still held by a Dutch school, university or another institution.
Clear help for US diploma and transcript requests
Choose Apostille Submission for a clear single-step route, or Document Coordination for a more complex, multi-step education-document process.
Apostille Submission
For cases where the correct Dutch diploma is already available and mainly needs apostille submission.
- For straightforward Dutch apostille handling
- Useful when the diploma route is already clear
- WhatsApp updates during the process
Document Coordination
Best for multi-step routes involving diploma checks, transcripts, apostille, certified translation, credential evaluation and international delivery.
- For unclear or multi-step US education requests
- Coordination across all agreed document steps
- One clear point of contact throughout
