Doctoral Certificates
The University of Padova can issue certifications relating to enrolment in the PhD programme and the achievement of the PhD degree, in Italian or English. The request should be sent to the address phd@unipd.it.
According to current legislation, the Office has 30 days to process requests.
If the recipients are public bodies or private managers of public services in Italy, it is necessary to submit a self-certification.
For each certificate, it is possible to virtually pay the stamp duty of € 16.00 to which the certificates are subject, by making a payment of the same amount through PagoPA:
- On the page https://unipd.pagoatenei.cineca.it/portalepagamenti.server.frontend/#/ click on "Spontaneous payment" and enter the necessary data to proceed with the payment.
- Under "Reason for payment" select "DIDA02 - Stamp duty - Certificates Name Surname" and on the "Reason" field type "Surname and first name, payment of revenue stamp for PhD certificate"
- Click on the "Pay Now" button and proceed with the payment.
Finally, it is necessary to send the payment receipt to the phd@unipd.it address together with a copy of an identity document, specifying the destination and the language of issue of the certificate.
For certificates issued for Italy, there are some exemptions from stamp duty (D.P.R. 26/10/1972 n. 642 Annex B and subsequent amendments).
Certificates are usually signed digitally. In case you need a handwritten signature and wet stamp, you must indicate this in the request.
When requesting certificates from the Police Headquarters, it is necessary to specify whether this is the first issue or the renewal of your residence permit.
In case of renewal, a copy of the last residence permit obtained together with an identity document is required to be sent to the phd@unipd.it address .
In the event that you have to apply for the first issue, it is possible to virtually pay the stamp duty of € 16.00 to which the certificates are subject, by making a payment of the same amount through PagoPA:
- On the page https://unipd.pagoatenei.cineca.it/portalepagamenti.server.frontend/#/ click on "Spontaneous payment" and enter the necessary data to proceed with the payment.
