Going to Italy for Work or Study? Don’t Miss This Step: The Declaration of Value (DoV) Explained

-

 If you’re planning to move to Italy for higher education or employment, there’s one important document that many overlook until it’s too late — the Declaration of Value (DoV).

This often-underestimated document is crucial to your Italian visa process, whether you're applying for a student visa or a work permit (Nulla Osta).

💡 What is the Declaration of Value (DoV)?

The DoV is an official statement issued by the Italian Embassy or Consulate in your home country (India, in this case). It certifies that your educational qualifications (like degrees or diplomas) are legitimate and valid according to Italian standards.

📌 Why is the DoV Important?

If you’re:

  • Applying for a university admission in Italy

  • Seeking a work visa or Nulla Osta

  • Enrolling in a language or specialization program

…then the Italian authorities will likely ask for your DoV during the visa application process.

Without it, your documents might not be recognized, leading to delays, rejections, or even denied entry.

📝 What Does the DoV Include?

The Declaration of Value typically contains:

  • Your full academic qualification details

  • The status of the issuing institution

  • The duration of the course

  • The value of the qualification in your home country

🔍 How to Get the DoV?

The process involves:

  1. Notarization of your degree/diploma

  2. Apostille attestation from the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA)

  3. Submission to the Italian Embassy/Consulate with supporting documents

It can be a time-consuming and technical process — but luckily, there are services that can assist you.
