Q&A regarding the application

Question: How to translate non-English certificates? Is it sufficient to translate these on our own and provide the original or do they need to be translated from an official office?

Answer: If possible, all certificates should be in English. If you have old certificates in other languages than Swedish or English, attach the original together with your own translation. NB: can be a verified copy, as per instructions here.

Question: As the guidelines for submitted certificates state that a signature from the supervisor is necessary: Is it sufficient if a certificate was signed from an assistant?

Answer: Yes, as long as the certificate is printed on a letter with the institutional letterhead.

Question: Is a scanned and then printed PDF considered a hard copy, when it was printed and then signed and stamped from official site (like KIB)?

Answer: Yes, it is OK.
