What is Dichiarazione di Valore?
Dichiarazione di Valore (DV) is an official document issued by the Italian consulate in the country where the diploma or certificate was issued. It confirms:

Procedure for obtaining Dichiarazione di Valore in Armenia

Before the document can be reviewed by the Italian consulate, it must be officially authenticated:
✔ For Italy, an apostille is sufficient, as both countries are parties to the Hague Convention.

🔹 2. Translation into Italian
The document must be translated into Italian and certified by an official translator or notary.
🔹 3. Submission of documents to the Italian Consulate in Yerevan
After translation and apostille, the document is submitted to the Italian consulate.

Dichiarazione di Valore vs. CIMEA and Equipollenza
☑ Dichiarazione di Valore – confirms the authenticity of the document but does not equate it to the Italian standard.
☑ CIMEA (Centro Informazioni sulla Mobilità e le Equivalenze Accademiche) – an independent organization that evaluates diplomas and issues an Attestato di Comparabilità, used by universities and employers.
☑ Equipollenza – official recognition of a foreign diploma as equivalent to an Italian one (e.g., for working as a doctor or engineer).
