Translation for the Nigerian community

Africa's most populous nation

Nigeria is Africa's most populous country, home to over 200 million people and more than 500 distinct ethnic languages, including Hausa, Yoruba and Igbo. English, inherited from the colonial era, remains the official language and serves as the country's unifying lingua franca in government, education and official documentation.

Nigerian school leaving certificates are issued by WAEC (West African Examinations Council) or NECO (National Examinations Council) — examination bodies distinct to West Africa. For anyone living in Germany who needs these or other Nigerian documents translated, we ensure the translation is carried out by a translator officially sworn in before a German court, so it is accepted by German authorities, courts and universities nationwide.

We accept your documents digitally regardless of which German state you live in, or which Nigerian state your document was issued in.
