Our district has a policy that hard to decipher records must be translated and certified through the most local consulate for that country.

This "pink book" link makes me soooooo happy. :) :D :yes:

You should have seen me trying to use Google Translate to figure out vaccines on an exchange student last year. It was not pretty.
