Recently a new Electronic Datacheck Service has been introduced called HEDD.  HEDD stands for Higher Education Degree Datacheck.

Notarisation of Degree Certificates

Most quality Notary Publics, when certifying and notarising a UK Degree Certificate will include the following certifications within their Notarial Certificate:

1. confirm the document is a true and accurate copy of the original;
2. confirm the identity details of the appearer and holder of the Degree Certificate;
3. confirm and verify the authenticity of the Degree Certificate once this has been validated with the relevant academic institution.

Cost Effective University Degree Certificates Notarised.
