Equivalence
Degree Issuance services are provided by Higher Education Commission
(HEC). We require these services when we have either got a foreign
degree from international institute or some other local degree that
is not recognized in all disciplines equally. Equivalence degree is
issued which is accepted and recognized by all institutes and
disciplines unanimously. HEC issues degree starting from bachelors
level while secondary level degrees are issued by local board
offices. You can get equivalence of both general educational degrees
