Certified SPM Certificate translation
SPM Certificate translation in Malaysia
Officially certified and accepted by the authorities that matter in Malaysia.
The Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) is the national secondary-school qualification awarded by the Lembaga Peperiksaan (Examinations Syndicate) under the Ministry of Education, taken at the end of Form 5. Because the certificate and result slip are issued in Bahasa Malaysia, students applying to overseas universities, foundation programmes, or scholarships almost always need a certified English translation — and a plain translation is not accepted by the receiving institution.
Translife provides certified SPM certificate translation from our Subang Jaya headquarters. Each translation is produced by a qualified human linguist, checked by a second reviewer, and issued with our company certification statement, official stamp, and signature confirming it is a true and accurate rendering of the original. Subject names, grades, and the Lembaga Peperiksaan formatting are reproduced exactly so an overseas admissions office or scholarship board can read your results without ambiguity. Where a destination requires it, we also arrange notarisation and Wisma Putra (Ministry of Foreign Affairs) endorsement.
We translate the SPM certificate and result slip into English and other languages, taking care to render Malaysian subject names and the grading scale (such as A+ to G) in a way that foreign institutions understand. Where you also hold the older SPM Vocational (SPMV) or related certificates, we translate those to the same standard.

SPM Certificate translation in Malaysia — FAQ
Answers to the questions we are asked most often.
Will universities and scholarship boards accept a certified SPM translation?
Yes. Our certified translations carry a signed statement of accuracy, our company stamp, and signature, and are accepted by overseas universities, JPA and other scholarship boards, embassies, and employers. If your destination requires it, we can add notarisation and Wisma Putra (MOFA) endorsement for embassy legalisation.
How much does SPM certificate translation cost in Malaysia?
Certified translation starts from RM180 per page (pages are counted per 200 words); the SPM certificate and result slip are typically one to two pages. Notarisation and MOFA endorsement, where required, are quoted separately. You will receive an exact, all-in quote before we begin.
How long does it take?
The SPM certificate and result slip are typically ready within 1–2 working days for the certified translation. Urgent and same-day options are available. Notarisation and MOFA endorsement add a few additional working days depending on the destination.
Do you translate the result slip as well as the certificate?
Yes. We translate both the SPM certificate and the detailed result slip, including all subject names and the grading scale, so the receiving institution sees your full set of results in English.
How are SPM subjects and grades handled in the translation?
We render Malaysian subject names and the SPM grading scale faithfully and in terms an overseas admissions office can understand, while keeping the translation a true reflection of the original — we do not convert or interpret your grades into another system.
