Letter of undertaking translation

A letter of undertaking is a document in which a person declares that they will fulfill a particular obligation. It is requested in education, scholarship, residence and commercial procedures.

The scope and duration of the undertaking are clearly conveyed in the translation. An obligation translated ambiguously or incompletely may cause a dispute at a later stage.

Which institutions request this document?
