Does the letter of completion for degree (PhD) allow me to use the degree officially in Europe? I received a letter of completion for my degree (PhD) from my University in the United States.
&quot;He should be granted all privileges of this degree&quot;
Can I use the degree by now in Europe for applications / official use? Or do I need to wait for the official date when I receive my diploma / transcript?
Perhaps you can apply for jobs already (explaining that you already finished your PhD). You could even receive a job offer, and start working on the immigration procedure.
However, many official applications (to the goverment, etc.) require you to submit a copy of your Diploma registered with Apostille. This is also true for many attractive immigration programs.
Don't forget to get this Apostille before departing from the US.
