WHAT WE TRANSLATE
The Indonesian Academic Transcript (Transkrip Nilai (Transkrip Akademik))
The Indonesian university transcript is the Transkrip Nilai (or Transkrip Akademik), issued by the institution's academic office and typically listing every course with SKS credit units, a letter grade (A through E, where A equals 4.0), the per-semester IPS, and the cumulative IPK on Indonesia's 0 to 4 scale, plus a predikat kelulusan such as 'Dengan Pujian' (cum laude). Secondary-school grades instead appear on the Rapor or Daftar Nilai using a 0 to 100 scale. Because a US evaluator can misread these figures, a certified translation must state the grading scale explicitly, preserve the IPK exactly, and keep the SKS credit column so WES or a university can map the record correctly. Course titles (mata kuliah) are in Indonesian and must be translated faithfully rather than approximated, and the course codes retained. Newer transcripts may be paired with an SKPI (Diploma Supplement). The institution's seal and the dean's or rector's signature must be rendered. Translation HelpDesk provides a certified English transcript translation for USCIS and admissions use.
WHO ISSUES IT
Where Your Indonesian Academic Transcript Comes From
Indonesian academic transcripts are issued by the awarding school or university itself — the exact office and registration system are described above. Indonesia joined the Hague Apostille Convention (in force since 4 June 2022), so a single apostille now replaces embassy legalization. Full Indonesia apostille & authentication guidance →
USCIS REQUIREMENTS
How USCIS Wants Your Indonesian Academic Transcript Translated
For your Indonesian 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 Indonesian original.
WATCH OUT FOR
Common Indonesian Academic Transcript Pitfalls
Indonesian 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 Indonesian Specialist
A native speaker of your document's language handles it — not a generalist or a machine.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Indonesian academic transcript translation cost?
A standard Indonesian 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 Indonesian 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.
How do you handle Indonesian names that are just one word?
Many Indonesians legally hold a single name with no surname. We translate the certificate exactly as issued and do not fabricate a family name, which keeps your translation consistent with your passport and USCIS forms and avoids a request for evidence over mismatched names.
