Got my SPM cert translated for RM10 at Lembaga Peperiksaan yesterday. Took quite a drive, and with the recent and sudden toll hike, it was RM20 for toll driving from IKEA area to Putrajaya. Putting avoid toll options on google map will save a few couple of bucks. Positive news was the process itself was very quick, in less than 10 minutes, my cert was translated and certified by the Assistant Director of the Examination Syndicate, as the true certified copy. I actually thought the cert is an original translated copy and hence need not to be certified. I am still thinking the same.
Drove to the Taman Duta branch before to check in, but according to the security, this branch only deals with 'confidential' information. So putrajaya it was, and the parking there was very shocking to me. it was quite confusing to see where the parking spots are, and many cars were parked surrounding the front of the all the kementrian office's entrances. The flow was pretty bad in there. Had some time to sight see before driving into block E11, there are definitely many rooms for improvements.
Been through some other options before lembaga, such as getting a list of embassy approved translators, and even self-translation, the former is plausible but it was too expensive compared to lembaga option, and the latter was obviously just something for me to have fun and retrain my bahasa-english language translation skills.
Hope posting this will save you time and money on translating your cert that I've voluntarily invested in. Also took a picture of how the terjemahan sijil looks like!
Blurring it a little bit for some discretion :D

ReplyDeleteHello, I wish to pursue my undergraduate studies overseas too, and just like how you were, I need to translate my SPM and STPM certificates to english before I can get the confirmation from the consul in the embassy. Can I translate the certificates myself? STPM certificate translation is too expensive and time consuming.
ReplyDeleteLook forward for your reply as well as your advice. Thank you :)
You should check with the institutions if they recognise self-translated certs. Usually they require some approved sources for legitimacy.

ReplyDeleteHi Karee, may I know if I get the SPM CERTIFICATE translated immediately? How long for process to take?
ReplyDeleteIt was done within minutes when I was at the office. The time consuming part was looking for the place and getting parking.
Deleteohhh does it mean like you just go to the office and get it translated? i saw someone said we can apply it online, but the fees is RM30 💀
DeleteHi Karee, I was wondering if you know whether I could do this online or through post as I am living in Sweden and I am not able to go to Putrajaya. I really need my official translation of my SPM cert ASAP as they did not accept my original version eventhough it already had the translation of the subjects in English. Thank you.
