Learn when a notarized translation into Kazakh or Russian is required, why the diploma supplement and its seals matter, where translation certification may be completed, and how recognition translation fits into the separate clinical-practice process.

For foreign medical records submitted to a Moldova-issued travel medical insurer, the policy determines the target language and translation form.

Confirm the language, formality, originals, scans, and deadline with your insurer before ordering.
