Skip to content If you have earned a degree overseas and plan to work or study in the UK, you must ensure that your qualifications are recognized as equivalent to UK standards. Understanding the process of degree recognition can help you access opportunities in education, employment, and visa applications.
In the UK, degree recognition is handled by UK ENIC, formerly known as UK NARIC. UK ENIC is the designated national agency responsible for evaluating and comparing international qualifications to UK standards. If you have a foreign degree, obtaining a Statement of Comparability can confirm how your qualification aligns with the UK education system.
Having a recognized qualification is essential for:
| For Employment | For Visa Applications | For Teaching in the UK |
|---|---|---|
|
Provide your Statement of Comparability to UK employers during the hiring process.
|
If you are applying for a Skilled Worker Visa, your degree recognition can help you earn tradeable points.
|
Check if their qualification is recognized for Initial Teacher Training (ITT).
|
|
If required, obtain additional professional accreditation based on your qualifications.
|
Include the Statement of Comparability with your visa application to prove that your qualification meets UK requirements.
|
Apply for Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) if eligible. |
| | |
Obtain a degree equivalency statement from UK ENIC.

If your degree is not considered equivalent to a UK qualification, you may need to complete a conversion course. These are designed to bridge the gap and provide the required credentials for employment or further study.
Standard processing takes 15 working days.
It depends on the purpose. Some employers and universities may accept alternative forms of recognition, but for visa applications, it is often required.
Some jobs do not require a Statement of Comparability, but having one can improve your job prospects, especially for regulated professions.
