Procedure to Request Certificates

Obs.: Obs.: If your credentials (username and password) are disabled, you must send an email to helpdesk@fe.up.pt requesting new credentials.


The request of a digital certificate is available in the information system (SIGARRA) for post-Bologna degree certificates of Licenciado (Bachelor), Mestre (Master) and Doutor (Doctor), in Portuguese and in English, along with the corresponding diploma supplement.
When a student selects the Digital format, the certificate will be exclusively available online in the SIGARRA webpage of the certificate request after it is electronically signed.
Please note that the certificates issued via this method only ensure their legal validity if kept or presented in this format since their printing (and eventual later scanning) does not allow the verification of the authenticity of their content and digital signature.
You can find more detailed information on the prior conditions, request, signature and availability in the user manual available at the IT Services website (up.pt/it).


If your academic data is not available in digital support, any certificate requests must be made by email to the following address: certificacao@fe.up.pt.

It is not possible to issue urgent degree certificates in digital format.

Certificate requests are subject to the fees established in the UP Table of Fees.

In the case of certificates for which the fee depends on the number of pages, an initial value must be paid and the remaining amount will be indicated at a later time (after regularisation of the initial value) in the student’s current account.

Certificates will only be issued after full payment of the corresponding fees.

In accordance with the UP Table of Fees, no fees are charged (exemption) for certificates of enrolment and registration, of curricular units completed, of school achievement and of degree completion (in Portuguese) issued solely for the purposes of applying for study grants from the Social Action Services (SASUP), income tax declarations, ADSE (Public Administration's health subsystem), family allowance, medical and pharmaceutical assistance, pensions, public transport pass, and for granting residence to foreign students. Also, no fees are charged (exemption) for certificate requests expressly exempt in the legislation in force, namely for military purposes

Note: Exempt certificates cannot be requested with urgency.

Payment of fees regarding certificates requested online can be made by using the corresponding ATM references available in the student’s current account, on the tab "Despesas não saldadas" (Outstanding expenses). Click on the icon to generate the ATM references.

If certificates cannot be requested online, it is not possible to use ATM references to pay for the corresponding fees. In such cases, students will receive an email with information for payment.
