I know that ACCA professional is equivalent to masters but I want a written official document which says that its equivalent to masters ? I need to prove in Austrian municipality office that I have a master degree. They don’t accept my only ACCA transcripts and membership letter. They say we are not university which can validate and compare your subjects and then confirm that its masters. They want a letter in which there should not be any ambiguity that its masters or not. I want a letter from ACCA which later I will do Apostile. Thanks
July 21, 2019 at 12:28 pm #524468In my ACCA, your membership page has a link where you can directly download the letter of equivalence.
Alternatively you can apply to UKNARIC for a letter of equivalence with a charge of 20 pounds or so. These letters can be legalised as well.
I hope this helps
July 23, 2019 at 10:09 am #524696Thanks but I did not pay for last 4 years for my membership. So that means I van not get that letter .
UKNARIC letter is possible to Apostil ? But where ? Who does that ? Thanks
July 24, 2019 at 10:24 am #524790You have to clear your dues and reinstate the membership status.
UKNARIC is possible to legalise (apostel). But when you apply with your membership certificate, they will validate it with ACCA before they issue the letter of equivalence.Since your status is non member, ACCA may not give a confirmation on your membership status.
To legalise the UKNARIC letter, you may have to find an approved individual in the UK. you can find one through on line. contact them by mail and transfer the appropriate fees. They will do it for you and send you back the same including the attestation of the country you are required to submit the same. I have gone through this exercise for my ACCA certificates as well as UKNARIC letter. you may contact this mail for notary services. enquiries@thenotarysolution.co.uk, Ms. Katie Beckett (Notary Public).
But, the first step is to reinstate your status as a member in ACCA records, without which nothing may be possible.
Good luck
July 24, 2019 at 3:36 pm #524810Well I have membership certificate and also now I have received equivalence to masters certificate from ACCA.
If NARIC UK issue me also equivalnce certificate and do Apostle then it should be enough to get admission in any masters or PHD programme in Austria ? Right ?
July 25, 2019 at 9:43 am #524858My knowledge on the eligibility requirements for PHD in any university is limited. Please check with the university itself.
I my understanding, Since ACCA is a professional qualification and the standards of its final exams are equivalent to a British Masters degree, many universities do not recognise it as an academic award/degree.
To pursue a PHD, an academic masters degree may be required rather than a professional degree equivalent to the standards of a masters degree.
Good luck

Hi i want to have CAT certificate which i passed in 2010, please advise as i see lots of requirements are there. can any one help me to get this certificate as i need to submit to Abu Dhabi office.
June 24, 2021 at 8:18 am #626199@Myadab – I suggest you contact ACCA directly accaglobal.com/vn/en/footer-toolbar/contact-us.html (you are not asking for a letter of equivalence for the ACCA qualification – you are asking for something entirely different). As there is no longer such thing as a CAT Certificate (see https://www.accaglobal.com/gb/en/help/students-cat.html) please be sure to provide as much relevant information as you can in your enquiry – most importantly your registration number, your full name when you first registered – I suggest date of birth also.
