Qualification recognition
European Qualifications Passport for Refugees (EQPR)
A Council of Europe assessment of refugees’ qualifications when educational documents are missing or incomplete.

The European Qualifications Passport for Refugees is a Council of Europe tool for assessing refugees’ qualifications when documents are missing or incomplete. The assessment draws on the evidence you can provide and a structured interview. The resulting document can help you present your educational and professional experience to a university or an employer.
Who it is for
People affected by forced displacement whose educational documentation is incomplete or unavailable.

Important limitations
The EQPR is not a formal recognition decision and does not guarantee admission. Eligibility depends on individual status and circumstances; it is not available to every Belarusian citizen simply on the basis of nationality. For formal academic recognition, use the national recognition authority through ENIC-NARIC.
