Yes, sometimes it is mentioned and sometimes not but, for example PAF requires PEC recognition and they mention such requirement in their advertisements. Nevertheless you should apply for a PEC recognition because most local engineering degrees come with PEC recognition by default so you never know if any employer ask for PEC recognition of your foreign qualification .

Yes, equivalence alone is enough for CSS.

If you go direct to HEC Islamabad with all original documets and pay Rs. 5000 in cash you can get it in one or two days. First they issue a provisional letter which needs to be confirmed by your university ( from where degree has been earned ). In my case university replied within 2 hours and I got the Equivalence letter issued on same day. Concerned person is very cooperative and his contact is.

Fill out online application form on www.des.hec.gov.pk and a list of required documents will be automatically listed there. Anyhow following were attached in my case.
Original Secondary School Certificate
Original Higher Secondary School Certificate
Passport showing my stay for study in Germany
Enrollment certificate of University
Original transcripts of Degree
Original Degree
copy of Research Thesis
Supplement of degree
Original N.I.C of Pakistan

Remember HEC also needs confirmation about the genuiness of your degree from your university. HEC accepts such confirmation through Fax/E-mail, so make it sure that concerned department/examination branch is ready to sent this confirmation to HEC.
Feel free to ask any other question
Regards,

@ notoriouseagle; Possibly a photograph may also be required. You can bring a set of photocopies of the documents mentioned in above post by neuschwanstein.

Those persons are really very cooperating and you may get your provisional certificate within a day.

Regards

DEAR I RECEIVED THIS FROM HeC IN EMAIL AND I HAVE APPLIED for equivalency,

With reference to your application # -2013 on the subject, it is informed that the lse University is a chartered university of United Kingdom. The Higher Education Commission recognizes Degree held by you from University, United Kingdom as equivalent to corresponding degree in the relevant field from Pakistan.

Does anyone of u has experienced such situation ? Plz share, what is the procedure for it ?
More important, do they recognise all degrees from all countries ? or is there any specific rules/restrictions ? Is it possible that HEC refuses to recognise my degree ??
Is anyone working with HEC on this forum or can share the contact number of HEC concerned department/person.

Regards,
Is equivalence certificate essential for students from foreign universities? It seems some people on the forum suggest it isn't. Can anyone help please?
