WHAT WE TRANSLATE
The Burmese Diploma (Bwe Let-hmat (ဘွဲ့လက်မှတ်) — Degree Certificate)
A Myanmar degree certificate (ဘွဲ့လက်မှတ်, bwe let-hmat) is conferred by a university such as the University of Yangon or Yangon University of Economics, under the Department of Higher Education, and formally awarded at the convocation ceremony. Many certificates are printed in Burmese, showing the degree title (e.g., B.A., B.Sc.), the graduate's mononym name, the conferral date in both Gregorian and Myanmar Era, and the Rector's and Registrar's signatures beneath an embossed university seal; some newer institutions issue partially bilingual parchments, but the legally operative text is Burmese. Sub-degree qualifications from the universities' "Diploma" programs use a separate template. For USCIS purposes — an H-1B, EB-2/EB-3, or extraordinary-ability filing, or a credential evaluation feeding one — the certified translation must reproduce the exact degree name and honours class, the conferring university and department, and the seal and signature block, with a translator's note flagging that the Burmese single-name format carries no surname so the name aligns with the passport and petition.
WHO ISSUES IT
Where Your Burmese Diploma Comes From
Burmese diplomas are issued by the awarding school or university itself — the exact office and registration system are described above. Myanmar is not a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, so its documents cannot be apostilled; where authentication is required for foreign use, records go through Myanmar's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and then consular legalization at the relevant embassy.

USCIS REQUIREMENTS
How USCIS Wants Your Burmese Diploma Translated
For your Burmese diploma, 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 Burmese original.
WATCH OUT FOR
Common Burmese Diploma Pitfalls
Burmese diplomas should have institution names, degree titles, and honors transliterated and labeled rather than 'converted' to a US equivalent — that judgment belongs to the credential evaluator (WES/NACES), not the translator.
Native Burmese Specialist
A native speaker of your document's language handles it — not a generalist or a machine.

USCIS Acceptance Guaranteed
If USCIS rejects it citing the translation, we fix it free and cover your resubmission fee.
