The “Declaration of Value” is a document that certifies the value of a qualification obtained in an educational system different from the Italian one. It is written in Italian and issued by the Italian Diplomatic Representatives abroad (Embassies / Consulates) “competent by area”, that is, to the closest city in which the institution issuing the foreign title is located.
If the country in which the certificate was issued signed the Hague Convention (October 5, 1961), the “Apostille” must be affixed to the title before requesting the Declaration of Value.
To obtain a declaration of value, the following is required:
- application form duly completed and signed by the interested person
- photocopy of a valid identity document (Identity card and passport);
- certified copy of the original title legalized and translated in Italian;
- Transcript of votes (Syllabus) legalized and translated in Italian.
Submission of applications
Applicants shall submit the documents by courier or in person (on Mondays from 10:00 a.m. till 12:00 p.m. and on Wednesdays from 12:00 till 1:00 p.m.).

For the service to be free of charge, proof must be provided that the declaration is for study purposes (e.g. “Universitaly” certificate). Declarations of value for work reasons or any other require a small fee to be paid in cash.
