All TEFL UK courses are UK government recognized

To use documents outside of the UK, it is required that they pass official checks and are able to receive government stamps from at least the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) for your work abroad visa. This procedure ensures that the document is legitimate and will be legally recognised in your destination country. All TEFL courses with TEFL UK meet this requirement, allowing you peace of mind that your TEFL certificate will be accepted internationally.
