What Are Legitimate Reasons to Buy a Fake Diploma?

There a number of legal, entirely legit reasons why somebody would choose to buy a fake diploma. They may want a display copy for their home or office wall, a backup copy or convenient keepsake, a placeholder while they wait for their official diploma, replacement for a school that’s closed and reprints are impossible to come by, as memorabilia for a school they're a fan of, a motivational tool, or use as a detailed prop for special events and photo shoots.

If you can identify with one of these situations, Diploma Company is here to help. Every order 100% custom-made, printed with detailed layouts and premium materials, and backed by our 90-day guarantee.

Replica diplomas are perfectly legal to own as a display copy, for personal replacement needs, or novelty purposes. While they should never be presented as "official diplomas", ours are made with that extra level of detail and quality that makes them stand out as professionally made, true-to-original replications.

How to Spot a Fake Diploma?

When trying to spot a fake diploma, the truth is their often easy to pick from a lineup. A cheap replica is often priced low because it cut corners, and the signs show fast. A good place to start is to check the seals or logos. Are they raised or printed flat? Most schools used raised seals, but not all. Is the text embossed or raised lettering? Flat text could be a sign that it's a fake. Most colleges and universities use raised lettering when printing the original diploma copy. If it's clear that it was printed on a department store Inket printer, that should be another huge red flag.

While holding the diploma, ask yourself, if the paper feels flimsy or cheap. Most schools always print diplomas on heavy, high-grade parchment paper that will hold up over time, not flimsy copy paper. Typos are also very rare on authentic diplomas schools will proofread their templates to avoid costly reprints. Cheap replicas, on the other hand, will skip these sorts of quality controls - which is why errors can slip through.

At Diploma Company, we proofread before we print, only use high-quality, professional paper stock and layouts inspired by real diplomas. Our team studies authentic templates so that the design, seals, and signatures look true-to-form. It's how we avoid the common mistakes that make so many fakes from other shops easy to spot.

Our team reviews each document with attention to detail.

Frequently Asked Questions About Replica Diplomas

  • What paper do you use for diplomas?

    The type of paper we use really comes down to which diploma we’re replicating. For the most part, we opt for premium parchment—think the right thickness, texture, finish—the stuff that actually resembles the original. We want the final product not just to look convincing but also to feel substantial and professional in your hands. No shortcuts, just quality that stands out.

  • Can I choose seals, embossing, or foil?

    Absolutely, you can elevate your diploma with premium touches—think gold foil accents, raised print, or embossed lettering. These upgrades really enhance the document’s overall look, giving it a sharp, professional vibe. Many clients prefer to invest in these finishes for diplomas intended for display, while others opt for a simpler version if the document is mainly for scanning or filing. It’s all about what fits your needs best.

  • Will I see a proof before printing?

    Absolutely. We highly recommend that customers request a complimentary digital proof when completing our order form. This way, you’ll receive a preview of your design via email for your review and approval before any printing or packaging takes place. It’s our way of ensuring you’re completely satisfied with the final result.

  • Can I add honors or a specific program name?

    No problem. You’ll find a section on the order form for additional notes—just mention if you’d like Latin honors or specific program names added to your print. Our team will take care of those details at your request.

  • How quickly can I receive my order?

    Once your order is approved, we typically handle printing within 24 business hours. Submit your order before our daily cutoff and it should ship out the same day. You have the option to receive your order as a same-day digital copy via email, or as a physical package delivered to your location.
