In order for your documents to be accepted:
the name and birthdate provided must be the same on all your documents (ID, transcripts, degree certificate, etc.)

If the names are different, you must provide us with documentation (for example, a marriage certificate if you've been married) as to why they don't match.
If the birthdate on any of your documents is different from your passport, the difference must be explained with official documentation.
If your documentation was issued in Swedish, Danish, Norwegian or English, no translation is required. Otherwise, please provide an official translation to English or Swedish.
