Getting a Medical Certificate in Naples
Naples is Campania's capital and one of southern Italy's major port cities, with an economy that spans shipping and logistics, manufacturing, tourism around its historic centre and bay, and a large public administration presence. That range of work means documentation needs vary widely across the city, from a dockworker's shift-based employer to a small tourism business in the centro storico.
The city is also a significant university centre — Università di Napoli Federico II is one of the oldest universities in the world and among the largest in Italy. As with any large institution, illness affecting an exam or coursework deadline is generally handled through a formal departmental process, so it is worth checking that process before requesting documentation.
There is no clinic to visit in Naples: your case is assessed online by a doctor registered to assess cases in Italy, and the review happens the same way wherever in the country you are. You do not need to be well enough to travel across Naples or to get a same-day appointment for this to work.
A major southern port city
Shipping, logistics and manufacturing sit alongside a large tourism economy around the historic centre and the bay. Work patterns and absence procedures vary a great deal across that mix.
Università di Napoli Federico II
One of the oldest universities in the world, with its own evidence requirements for illness affecting exams or coursework. Check your department's process before requesting anything.
A large public administration workforce
As Campania's regional capital, Naples has a substantial public-sector employer base alongside its private industries.
For statutory Italian sick pay, start with your own doctor
Our certificate is a separate general medical document. If you need the INPS-linked electronic sickness certificate for employer sick pay, that comes from your medico di base or, out of hours, the guardia medica — see the national rules above.
All Certificate Types Available in Italy
Every certificate type is reviewed by a doctor registered to assess cases in Italy. Choose the one that matches your situation, and see the legal snapshot above if what you actually need is Italy's formal INPS sick-pay certificate rather than a general medical certificate.
Sick Leave Certificate
A general medical certificate documenting an absence due to illness, for purposes outside Italy's formal INPS sick-pay system, for example personal records, insurance support, or non-statutory workplace documentation. This is not the certificato di malattia telematico; for statutory paid sick leave through INPS, you generally need to contact your own medico di base or, outside their hours, the on-call guardia medica.
From €34.99Sports Fitness Certificate
A general fitness-for-sport certificate, useful for recreational and non-competitive activity. Many Italian clubs require a specific certificato medico sportivo for competitive or agonistic participation, which requires an in-person examination by a sports-medicine doctor, something an online-only review cannot provide. Check with your club about which document they actually require.
From €34.99General Fitness Certificate
For gym membership sign-up and personal training programmes in Italy where a general health declaration is requested, and for other non-competitive fitness purposes.
From €34.99General Medical Certificate
For insurance claims, visa applications, legal proceedings, university matters, and other general documentation purposes in Italy where a doctor's assessment is requested.
From €34.99How It Works in Naples
Complete assessment
3-5 minutes. Select your certificate type, confirm Italy as your country, and answer relevant health questions honestly and in as much detail as you can. No payment is taken at this stage.
Doctor registered to assess cases in Italy reviews
Your case is reviewed against the context of your situation in Italy, generally during business hours (CET/CEST, Monday-Friday). The doctor may request more information before deciding whether it is clinically appropriate to issue your certificate.
Receive your PDF
Emailed same day, usually within 30 minutes of approval, with doctor credentials and a verification reference that lets a school, club, employer, or other recipient confirm authenticity.
What a Naples Medical Certificate Is Used For
General medical documentation
Supporting documentation for everyday situations where evidence of a medical assessment is useful, without needing an in-person appointment.
Insurance and legal matters
Insurers and legal processes commonly ask for evidence that a genuine medical assessment took place. Check what your specific insurer or process requires — the national rules above cover the general position.
Universities and coursework
Federico II and Naples' other institutions each set their own evidence requirements for illness affecting exams or coursework. Check your department's wording first.
Not a substitute for statutory sick pay documentation
If you need paid sick leave recognised by an employer through INPS, that requires the certificato di malattia telematico from your medico di base or the guardia medica — not this certificate. See the national rules above.

Italy Legal Snapshot: What Applies in Naples
Sick-leave and certificate rules are set nationally, so what follows applies in Naples exactly as it does anywhere else in Italy.
Italy's statutory paid sick leave system runs through INPS (Istituto Nazionale della Previdenza Sociale) and depends on a specific document called the certificato di malattia telematico, the electronic sickness certificate. This formal certificate is generally issued by your own treating doctor (medico di base), or, outside your own doctor's hours, by the on-call continuità assistenziale doctor (guardia medica), who transmits it directly and electronically to INPS through their own certified system. It is generally not something an external online-only service can issue in place of your registered treating doctor. Our online general medical certificate is a separate, complementary document, used for purposes such as insurance, visa applications, legal matters, education, sport, and travel, or as supporting general medical documentation, not as a substitute for the INPS-linked certificato di malattia telematico for statutory Italian sick pay purposes. If you need paid sick leave recognized by an Italian employer through INPS, you generally need to contact your own medico di base, or the on-call guardia medica outside their hours, rather than an online-only service. In everyday English this is often just called a doctor's note for Italy, even where the official local term differs.
| Local document name (formal) | Certificato di malattia telematico. English: "electronic sickness certificate." |
|---|---|
| Who can legally issue the formal certificate | Generally your medico di base (registered treating doctor), the on-call continuità assistenziale doctor (guardia medica) outside your own doctor's hours, or another treating clinician with access to the relevant INPS transmission system |
| How it is submitted | Transmitted directly and electronically by the doctor to INPS; there is generally no separate action for the patient to submit it themselves |
| Governing framework | INPS statutory sickness-benefit rules |
| Our online certificate | A separate general medical certificate, generally usable for insurance, visa, legal, education, sport, and travel purposes, or as supporting general medical documentation |
| What our online certificate is NOT | A substitute for the INPS-linked certificato di malattia telematico for statutory employer sick pay purposes |
| Data protection law | GDPR and Italy's Codice Privacy, overseen by the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali |
Note on statutory sick pay: If you are employed in Italy and need paid sick leave recognized by your employer through INPS, you generally need the certificato di malattia telematico issued by your own medico di base or, outside their hours, the on-call guardia medica, not a general certificate from an external online service. Our certificate is designed for other purposes, such as insurance, visa, legal, education, sport, and travel, or as supporting general medical documentation. Always confirm with your employer, your medico di base, or INPS directly if you are unsure which document your specific situation requires.

Every certificate for Italy is reviewed by a doctor registered to assess cases in Italy. A clinician will only issue a certificate after genuinely assessing your case, and only if it is clinically appropriate to do so. If the doctor cannot issue your certificate, you receive a full refund rather than a certificate you cannot use.
Registered practitioners, not a call centre.
Every doctor is independently verified against their national medical council before they see a single patient - including for patients in Naples.

No. The INPS-linked electronic sickness certificate that Italian employers rely on for statutory sick pay is generally issued by your own medico di base, or out of hours by the guardia medica (continuità assistenziale), and transmitted directly to INPS.

If you need paid sick leave through INPS, contact your medico di base or the guardia medica.
Our certificate is €34.99 flat, including the doctor's review, the PDF and its verification reference. A private doctor visit in Italy commonly falls in the €50-€120 range depending on the type of consultation. A certificate is not a substitute for care — if you need to be examined or treated, see a doctor.
