WHAT WE TRANSLATE
The Egyptian Academic Transcript (Kashf Daragat (كشف درجات))
The Egyptian academic transcript, kashf daragat (statement of marks), is issued and stamped by the student's faculty registrar and, for use abroad, verified through the Supreme Council of Universities. Unlike US transcripts it is often organized by academic year rather than semester, may list marks as raw scores out of a stated maximum plus a cumulative percentage, and uses the Arabic grade bands Momtaz (Excellent), Jayyid Jiddan (Very Good), Jayyid (Good), Maqbul (Pass) and Rasib (Fail). For USCIS-related credential evaluations (WES, ECE) the translation must be a literal, course-by-course rendering — evaluators do not accept summarized grades. Our certified translation lists every course title, the marks and maximums exactly as printed, the yearly and cumulative results, and the degree awarded, without recalculating anything into a 4.0 scale. We transliterate the student's name to match the diploma and passport, render the faculty and university names consistently, and mark the registrar's stamp and signature. The 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3) certification accompanies it for USCIS or the evaluating agency.
WHO ISSUES IT
Where Your Egyptian Academic Transcript Comes From
Egyptian academic transcripts are issued by the awarding school or university itself — the exact office and registration system are described above. Egypt is not a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, so its civil documents cannot be apostilled — they follow the consular legalization chain instead: first authenticated by Egypt's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, then legalized by the U.S. Embassy/Consulate.

USCIS REQUIREMENTS
How USCIS Wants Your Egyptian Academic Transcript Translated
For your Egyptian academic transcript, USCIS requires a complete English translation of everything on the page — the issuing office’s details, seals, and any marginal notes included — plus a signed certification of accuracy under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3). Machine translation cannot sign that certification. We reproduce the document's exact layout so an officer can compare it line by line against your Egyptian original.
WATCH OUT FOR
Common Egyptian Academic Transcript Pitfalls
Egyptian transcripts must preserve every subject, grade, credit, and the original grading scale so an evaluator can convert them; dropping the scale or rounding grades invites a rejection.
Native Egyptian Specialist
A native speaker of your document's language handles it — not a generalist or a machine.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Egyptian academic transcript translation cost?
A standard Egyptian academic transcript is typically $15-25 total, certified and formatted, delivered in 24-48 hours. Pricing is $0.05 per word; longer or multi-page documents are quoted exactly before you pay.
Is your Egyptian academic transcript translation accepted by USCIS?
Yes. Every translation includes a signed Certificate of Accuracy meeting 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3). If USCIS rejects it citing the translation, we correct it free and reimburse your resubmission fee.
My Egyptian birth certificate is already bilingual Arabic-English. Do I still need it translated?
Yes. On Egypt's computerized certificates, only the field labels are pre-printed in English; the actual names, dates, official seals, and any marginal notes remain in Arabic. USCIS still requires a complete certified English translation of that Arabic content, accompanied by a signed Certificate of Accuracy.
