Why do I have to pay the regional fee for the right to study even if I do not use benefits and services of DiSCo

The regional fee for the right to study was created to fund scholarships and other benefits for deserving students with fewer financial resources.
The payment, therefore, is not related to the use of canteens, residences and scholarships, but has a solidarity value: all students pay it to help guarantee the right to study.

How to pay the regional tax in Lazio

The regional fee must be paid in a lump sum at the same time as enrollment following the directionsof your university/college.

Whenmaking the payment, specify the following in the reason for payment:
T.R. (regional tax) + a.a. of reference + University + your Surname and First Name + the Tax Code with which the payment is to be associated
The reason for payment entered cannot be changed, so please check the data entered before proceeding with the payment.

Why do I see red and green sticker payments for the same year on PagoPa?

The red sticker indicates payments that were not completed correctly, while the green sticker indicates successful payments.
If both stickers are present for the same year and you have the green sticker payment receipt, consider only the latter valid.
The red-stamped payment can be ignored as it represents a failed payment attempt.
Note: Unsuccessful payments (red sticker) remain visible in the system and cannot be removed manually.

I forgot to make some payments and need to regularize my position. Is there a penalty payment?

For the regional fee referring to previous academic years, there are no penalties or delays for late payment.

I am a scholarship winner. Do I also have to pay the regional fee for the right to study?
