Duplicate Certificate Application – National University Bangladesh

A Duplicate Certificate is an official replacement document issued by the National University of Bangladesh for students whose original degree certificate has been lost, stolen, damaged, destroyed, or become unusable. This certificate carries the same academic value as the officially issued replacement under the university’s applicable rules and is often required for higher education, government jobs, private employment, immigration, scholarship applications, credential evaluation, and professional registration.

Losing an academic certificate can create significant difficulties during admission, employment, or official verification. Therefore, students should apply for a Duplicate Certificate as soon as possible after discovering that the original document is no longer available or cannot be used.

NU Help BD provides professional guidance and application assistance for students who wish to apply for a Duplicate Certificate under the National University of Bangladesh. Our experienced support team helps applicants understand the official application procedure, prepare the required documents, review the application, and complete every step of the process until the document is ready for collection.

Before starting a Duplicate Certificate application, students should collect all supporting documents. In many cases, applicants may be required to submit a General Diary (GD) copy from a police station, an affidavit, or a newspaper notice regarding the lost certificate, depending on the National University’s current requirements. Preparing complete and accurate documents helps reduce delays during processing.

A Duplicate Certificate is commonly required for:

  • Government Job Applications
  • Private Company Recruitment
  • Foreign University Admission
  • Scholarship Applications
  • Immigration and Visa Processing
  • Professional Registration
  • Embassy Documentation
  • Credential Evaluation
  • Official Academic Verification

The general application procedure includes preparing the required documents, completing the prescribed application form, paying the official fee, submitting supporting documents, and waiting for verification and processing by the National University. Once approved, applicants can collect their Duplicate Certificate according to the university’s official procedures.

At NU Help BD, we aim to make this process easier by providing clear guidance throughout every stage of the application. We help students understand document requirements, avoid common mistakes, and complete their applications accurately.
