Maastricht University-diploma voor gebruik in het buitenland.
Studied at Maastricht University and now need your diploma, transcript, diploma supplement, certified copy, graduation statement or degree verification abroad? Apostille Assist helps review the Dutch-side route for employment, postgraduate study, immigration, professional recognition, licensing or another international procedure.
Start met de juiste route
Of uw diploma al beschikbaar is of nog moet worden opgevraagd: u start altijd met dezelfde route.
Ik heb het document al
Use this route when the diploma, transcript, diploma supplement, graduation statement, certified copy or verification document is already available and you need help with DUO legalisation, apostille, translation, verification or submission.
The document still needs to be requested or collected
Use this route when the original diploma or another Maastricht University record is still held in the Netherlands and must first be requested, released or collected before legalisation, apostille and international delivery can begin.

Which Maastricht University documents may be requested?
Foreign recipients may ask for more than the diploma itself. The required document depends on the purpose and the exact wording used by the employer, university, authority or licensing body.
Why Maastricht University documents can require extra review
Maastricht University has a strongly international profile and many alumni continue their careers or studies abroad. Foreign recipients may use different terminology for diplomas, transcripts, supplements and degree verification.
How the Maastricht University document route works
The exact request from the foreign recipient is the best starting point.
Choose the correct intake
Use the Document Route Check if you already have the document, or the diploma collection route if it is still held in the Netherlands.
Identify the document
Determine whether the recipient needs the diploma, transcript, supplement, statement, certified copy or verification.
Review formalities
Check whether DUO legalisation, apostille, certified translation, verification or courier handling is required.
Coordinate next steps
Proceed with the agreed Dutch-side route while communication stays clear.
Common UM alumni situations
This page is designed for international Maastricht University alumni who need Dutch education documents after leaving the Netherlands.
What if the original diploma is unavailable?
If the original Maastricht University diploma is lost, inaccessible or still in the Netherlands, do not assume that a scan or replacement statement will automatically be accepted abroad.

Can a Maastricht University diploma be used abroad?

Can a UM transcript be apostilled?
Possibly, depending on how it is issued and signed. The Dutch-side route should be checked after the document is available.
What if an employer wants direct degree verification?
Share the employer’s wording. Direct verification, a certified copy, diploma legalisation or another route may be requested.
What if I lost my Maastricht University diploma?
First check which official replacement document, statement, transcript or verification route is available and what the foreign recipient accepts.
Can this be coordinated while I live abroad?

Is Apostille Assist affiliated with Maastricht University?
