              Relevant Procedure: Solemn declaration and electronic solemn declaration

              Notes: The procedure involves the person concerned issuing an electronic solemn declaration without needing to visit an administrative authority or a Citizens’ Service Centre (KEP). You can access the service for issuing an online solemn declaration in the following two ways: a) using your personal web banking codes for one of the available banks or b) using your personal TAXISnet passwords (after logging in once with your web banking codes to confirm your mobile phone number). You will then receive confirmation codes by text message on your mobile phone. The electronic solemn declaration that you will issue is legally equivalent to a solemn declaration bearing an authentic signature. You can either send it electronically or print it out and submit it to a public authority. At the same time, the citizen’s right to physically sign the Solemn Declaration pursuant to Article 8 of Law 1599/86 and to submit it to a competent authority, as a supporting document, remains.
