Have you lost a degree or school certificate

The Tampere City Archives holds certificates from the joint education authority of the City of Tampere and Pirkanmaa and from previous educational institutions, which can primarily be requested using the attached electronic form. 

The identity of the person requesting the certificate is verified on the form via the Suomi.fi service using strong identification (mobile certificate, online banking ID or certificate card). In addition to domestic identification means, you can also log in to the service using European eIDAS identification means. You can also make a request for information on site at the City Archives. If neither method is possible, please contact the City Archives.

Some material from educational institutions is not in the City Archive yet, so they should be enquired from the educational institution.

Delivery methods 

• Certified electronic document by email
  • Email messages containing copies of certificates are sent in an encrypted form due to the personal data. In such a case, the recipient receives with a separate messages an encrypted link that can be used to open the actual messages.
• Certified paper copy by post

Copies of documents are delivered or can be collected no later than within two weeks of the date when the City Archive received a request for the document. The City Archive will contact the customer, if necessary, to provide or obtain further information.
