Electronic diplomas and new issuance rules

The act introduces electronic diplomas for university degrees and academic titles. Graduates will receive them free of charge in digital form, with paper versions available upon request. A central diploma repository will also be created to facilitate verification.
Key points
University, doctoral and habilitation diplomas will be issued by default electronically – paper only on request.
Free diploma copies in foreign languages: English, French, Spanish, German and Russian (for degrees) and Latin (for academic titles).
Creation of an electronic diploma repository – a secure database for verifying document authenticity.
Soldiers will receive diplomas only in paper form.
Printouts from the repository will not be equivalent to originals – the digital document is what matters.
