Surname error on degree certificate
Hi guys, i was wondering if someone can help me with thoughts on this matter. my surname on my Degree certificate is spelt as "Ne cawe" instead of "Necawe. i noticed this but did not think it would be a problem. i went to the Chinese consulate to authenticate but they advised i should 1. ask my school to write a letter acknowledging the error & will fix it. or otherwise wait for the reprint and start with authenticating in my country. inwhich i dread. they also asked me to write a letter stating that i will be responsible if anything were to happen.
by the time i leave for China i would have received the correct certificate. the consulate has handed me back my documents.
is this a risk?
