WHAT WE TRANSLATE
The Eritrean Academic Transcript (Academic Transcript / Mark List (Statement of Results))
An Eritrean transcript is called a "mark list" or grade report and looks different by level. For secondary school it is the ESECE statement of results from the NHERI Testing Center, listing each subject and a numeric or letter grade from the single national grade-12 examination. For college work it is a course-by-course record from Eritrea Institute of Technology (Mai Nefhi), Halhale, Adi Keih or the former University of Asmara, showing credit hours and grades on a typically 4.0-scale or percentage system. Documents are often printed in English but carry Tigrinya headings, the registrar's signature and an inked seal. The translation must reproduce every grade, subject name and the grading key exactly — never convert Eritrean marks into U.S. letter equivalents, which is the evaluator's job, not the translator's. Preserve Ge'ez-calendar academic-year dates with Gregorian equivalents. USCIS itself rarely reads transcripts, but the certified translation typically feeds a WES/ECE credential evaluation, so the accuracy of numbers and the certifier's 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3) statement matter most.
WHO ISSUES IT
Where Your Eritrean Academic Transcript Comes From
Eritrean academic transcripts are issued by the awarding school or university itself — the exact office and registration system are described above. Eritrea is not a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, so Eritrean documents cannot be apostilled; when authentication is required they follow the consular legalization chain (Eritrean Ministry of Foreign Affairs authentication, then embassy/consular legalization).

USCIS REQUIREMENTS
How USCIS Wants Your Eritrean Academic Transcript Translated
For your Eritrean 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 Eritrean original.

Yes. Our native Tigrinya specialists routinely handle handwritten Eritrean register entries, Ge'ez-calendar dates, and full seal and stamp text.
