Steps

1. Register on cimea-diplome.it and verify your email.
2. Fill in your personal data exactly as in your passport.
3. Add your qualification: SSC/HSC for bachelor, Bachelor's degree for master.
4. Upload clear colour scans: degree certificate, transcripts, passport. Add English translations if originals are not in English.
5. If your university has a CIMEA agreement, select it and enter the code given by the university (often reduced or free).
6. Choose services: Statement of Comparability + Statement of Verification.
7. Pay online by card (fees depend on service and urgency – check the current price list).
8. Track the request; the statements arrive in your Diplome wallet as PDFs with QR verification.

Timing

Standard processing can take several weeks. Apply as soon as you have your final documents – do not wait for the offer letter.
