When a transcript is requested

A transcript may be requested when a Brazilian university, employer, professional body or authority needs to understand your study history, subjects, grades, credits, completed modules or academic performance in the Netherlands.

University admission, transfer, postgraduate study, exchange, scholarship or recognition procedures
Brazilian recipients asking for grades, academic records, diploma supplements or certified school documents

Check the exact instruction first

Education documents can be sensitive because the recipient may require a specific version: original transcript, certified copy, diploma supplement, signed school record, English version, Portuguese translation, or a document issued directly by the school or university.

Some recipients want the transcript issued or sealed by the Dutch institution
Some files combine a transcript with a diploma, certificate, enrolment letter or course description
The order of certification, apostille and translation should be checked before costs are made

Which transcript route may be needed?

The right route depends on the type of transcript, the issuing school or university, and the Brazilian recipient’s instructions.

🎓

Education document

Confirm whether the recipient needs a transcript, grade list, diploma supplement, certificate or several documents together.

🏫

Institution handling

The document may need to be issued, signed, stamped or certified by the Dutch school, university or exam body.

📄

Apostille route

If the document is suitable for international use, an apostille route may be needed before Brazil submission.

🇧🇷

Portuguese translation

Brazilian recipients may ask for a Portuguese translation after the Dutch document route is clear.

Common Brazil transcript situations

A transcript request can look simple, but the recipient may have strict rules about issue date, certification, translation and whether copies are accepted.

For study and recognition

Brazilian institutions may ask for your academic record to compare grades, credits and completed subjects. This can happen for admission, continuing study, diploma validation or professional registration.

University applications, postgraduate programmes or exchange-related files
Diploma recognition, professional board requests or education authority review
Files where a diploma and transcript must be submitted together

Frequently asked questions

Can a Dutch transcript be used in Brazil?

Often yes, but the document route depends on the Brazilian recipient. The recipient may ask for apostille, Portuguese translation, certification by the Dutch institution, original paper documents or additional education documents.

Does a transcript for Brazil need an apostille?

Many international document files require an apostille, but the exact route depends on the document type, how it was issued and what the Brazilian institution accepts.

Can a digital transcript be used?

Sometimes a digital copy is enough for an initial review, but formal submission may require an original, certified copy, apostille or courier delivery. The recipient’s instruction should be checked first.

Does the transcript need Portuguese translation?

Portuguese translation may be requested by a Brazilian university, employer, authority or recognition body. The correct order of apostille and translation should be reviewed before arranging either step.

What if my school or university only issues English documents?

An English transcript may still need apostille or translation depending on the recipient. Some Brazilian recipients accept English for review but require Portuguese for final submission.

Can this be arranged while I am already in Brazil?

In many cases, parts of the route can be coordinated remotely, depending on the issuing institution, identity checks, original-document requirements and courier needs.
