Obtaining and Legalizing Cuban Degree Certificates

We search for, obtain and legalize your Cuban university or high-school degree certificate so it is valid in any country in the world.

01

Make your studies count abroad

Emigrating, or looking for new work and study opportunities outside Cuba, almost always means producing a properly accredited degree certificate. At Cuba Legal Services we make sure your years of study are recognized internationally, without you having to travel to the island to deal with the paperwork.

We handle degree certificates at every level of education:

Our end-to-end process

For your Cuban degree certificate to be valid abroad, we put it through a rigorous validation process:

  1. 01
    Retrieval or Collection

    If you do not have the physical certificate, we obtain it, or a duplicate, from the relevant institution in Cuba.

  2. 02
    Legalization at MINJUS

    We validate the signatures of the education authorities at the Cuban Ministry of Justice.

  3. 03
    Consular Route / Apostille

    We arrange legalization at the embassies and consulates accredited in Cuba for the country where you will seek recognition or practise your profession.

  4. 04
    Secure International Delivery

    We send the legalized original certificate straight to your address by urgent courier (DHL / Correos Express), with a tracking number.

Why these files get rejected

Credential evaluation agencies apply strict, inflexible criteria: a sealed envelope sent directly by the issuing institution, a complete file with nothing left out, and a translation faithful to the original document. A single broken link in that chain — an opened envelope, incomplete course content, a course misread in translation — is enough for the file to be rejected or evaluated downward. And redoing it almost always means starting again in Cuba.
