Request Original WAEC Certificate/Result Online at certrequest.waec.ng

Official WAEC Logo
I have got a series of questions. Candidates want to know if:

  1. it is possible to print their WAEC Certificates online
  2. there is any website to print WAEC original result or certificate
  3. WAEC has an open service to allow candidates to print their certificates directly from their website.

Well, the answer is YES, and here is a guide to doing that.

But before then, let me handle some things.

  1. If you’re a WAEC school candidate (May/June), this post is not for you. You have two options, you can print the digital original certificate by following the guide in, "WAEC Certificates Online: Check, Print, and Share". You can also go back to your school. Your school is the one authorized to collect your certificate on your behalf. Such a certificate should be ready with the school management latest within a year (officially 90 days) after the release of the results online. For example, if you write the exams in 2015, your certificate should be there by 2016 or 2017.
  2. This guide (you will read to the end) to request a WAEC certificate online ONLY affects WAEC GCE candidates.
  3. In the case you got your certificate earlier but lost, damaged, or misplaced it, be it WAEC GCE or May/June, but now need another one, you will need to read my post “Lost WAEC Certificate? See How to Get New One or Attestation of Results”.
  4. If you intend to print the result (i.e. notification of WAEC result) instead, kindly follow the guide in “WAEC Results Out! 8 Steps to Check the result on https://www.waecdirect.org”.

Guide to Print WAEC GCE Certificate or Original Result Online

According to WAEC,

Private candidates can now make requests for their certificates. The requested certificate would be delivered to any WAEC office of choice. Candidates would be required to provide valid means of identification at the designated pick-up location (WAEC office). Please be advised that certificate processing may take 10 to 30 days.

Payment for the service and status information would all be handled through the portal. Candidates can request their certificates from the WASSCE for Private Candidates, 2019-Second Series, and after.

Candidates who want to request WAEC GCE certificates before 2019 or WAEC May/June of all years should follow the guide in "WAEC Digital Certificates Online: Access, Verify, Download, Share and Print".

WAEC GCE Candidates From 2019 To Date Should Follow the Guide Here

PAYMENT PROCEDURE: Payments can be made through the portal, Banks-in-branch (Payments via all Branches of Banks), USSD, or Debit Cards (MasterCard, Visa, and Verve) to the designated WAEC Account. The certificate collection fee is Four Thousand Seven Hundred Naira (N4,700) only. 

Hence, follow the step below to print your Certificate in color.

  1. Visit https://certrequest.waec.ng
  2. Click on REQUEST CERTIFICATE
  3. Next, take the right exam diet i.e. Private Candidate First Series or Private Candidate Second Series
  4. Select the correct year and enter your WAEC GCE registration number
  5. Continue to make a payment online for the service
  6. After payment, click on Request Original Certificate/Result. A reference number will be issued to you for further use
  7. You can now check the application status using the reference number given to you and the exam registration number

Note: If the website is not available, at the time of checking, kindly check back or visit the WAEC office of the state of exams for the physical collection.
