Certifications and Forms
Certifications and Forms
Pursuant to Article 15 of Law No. 183/2011, government authorities and agencies administering public services can no longer require or accept certificates from private individuals issued by other public offices.
Therefore, to comply with current law, certificates issued by Luiss can only be used in relations between private individuals. These certificates contain the following phrase, as required by law: “This certificate may not be submitted to government authorities or private operators of public services.”
For relationships with government authorities and agencies administering public services, self-certification forms are always used in lieu of certificates, which these same entities and agencies are obligated to accept; if they do not, it is considered a violation of their official duties.
Please remember that individuals are personally responsible for all statements made, which are subject to verification by the administration. The administration will then take appropriate action if necessary.
To recap:
- Certificates can be requested by visiting the PhD & Education Funding Office during normal opening hours. Only stamped certificates bearing the following wording may be requested: “This certificate may not be submitted to government authorities or private operators of public services.”
