WES Credential Evaluation & Sealed Envelope Services
Expert assistance in procuring verified sealed envelopes from universities, HEC, and IBCC for your North American and Australian credential evaluations.
What Is Credential Evaluation (WES)?
World Education Services (WES) is one of the most prominent agencies that provide Educational Credential Assessments (ECA). An ECA verifies that your Pakistani degrees and diplomas are genuine and evaluates their equivalence to educational standards in the United States and Canada. Our WES sealed envelope services in Pakistan provide professional guidance to ensure your academic documents are packaged and sent precisely according to the strict requirements of international assessment bodies.
The most critical and challenging part of this process is obtaining a "Sealed Envelope." WES, IQAS, ICAS, ICES, and VETASSESS do not accept documents sent directly by the applicant. They require academic transcripts and degrees to be attested, placed in an official envelope, stamped, signed across the seal by the issuing authority (like your university, HEC, or IBCC), and sometimes dispatched directly by them. We offer expert help in managing this bureaucratic maze. We take a limited number of cases each day to ensure every client receives proper attention and timely updates.
Who Needs This Assistance?
Credential evaluation is a mandatory step for several major life transitions. You will require our facilitation if you are pursuing:
- Canadian Permanent Residency (Express Entry): IRCC requires an ECA report from WES, IQAS, or ICAS for all foreign degrees to calculate immigration points.
- Australian Migration: Agencies like VETASSESS and Engineers Australia require verified academic documents sent through specific channels for skills assessment.
- US & Canadian Education: North American universities require credential evaluations to grant admissions to Masters or PhD programs based on foreign Bachelor's degrees.
- Professional Employment: Seeking employment in North America often requires proof that your qualifications match their local standards.

We start by identifying exactly which evaluating body you are using (WES, IQAS, ICAS, etc.) and advise you on their unique requirements for Pakistani documents.

4. Dispatch Guidance
We advise on the secure courier dispatch of the sealed envelopes directly to the assessing body in Canada, the US, or Australia, ensuring the reference number is properly cited.
