Official academic translation
Diploma and university transcript translation in Panama
Diplomas, degrees, transcripts and grade certificates translated English ↔ Spanish, signed and sealed by Authorized Public Translators recognized by MEDUCA.
When you need to translate your academic documents
If you studied outside Panama and will use your degree here —for a master's program, a job, a professional licensing process or a residency— the institution will ask for your diploma and transcript (grade certificate) in Spanish. In Panama, public institutions require an official translation of any document in another language that is meant to have legal effect (Executive Decree 975 of 2017, article 25). That means a sworn translation in Panama, signed and sealed by an official translator in Panama.
We also work the other way: Spanish to English translation in Panama of Panamanian degrees and transcripts you need to study or work abroad.

Tips so your document isn't returned
Ask the university or institution whether the degree must be apostilled before it is translated; if so, apostille the original first and then translate it with the apostille. Send us every page, including the back if it has stamps. If course names must match another document that has already been translated, send it to us and, as your English Spanish translator in Panama, we will keep the same terminology.
