From 25 September, UK NARIC’s Statement of Comparability (SoC) will be changing.

The new design for the SoC is a response to feedback from customers and stakeholders. It enhances the security features of the printed statements and increases protection against fraud and tampering. The new SoCs will be delivered with a covering letter to introduce the statement and give further insight into the comparison and evaluation process.

The reverse of the new SoC will feature additional information about the Statement and the qualification comparison itself, with explanations of UK NARIC's evaluation methodology and the UK qualifications framework.

A sample of the new design can be viewed online. 

The new design, with background printing to improve security, will be used on Statements of Comparability only. Other UK NARIC statements, such as English Language Assessments and the specialist Statement of Comparability for Early Years, will continue to be issued on plain background UK NARIC headed paper. This headed paper will, however, also feature a new, simpler, and more modern look, to match the heading on the new Statement of Comparability.

UK NARIC Visas and Nationality 'red route' statements are all unchanged in design.
