Description

The legal requirements authorise the registration authority to officially certify documents, but do not oblige it to do so. Notarisations are therefore exclusively at the discretion of the authority.

The registration authority is not authorised to officially certify documents. Public notarisations are generally reserved for notaries in accordance with the Notarisation Act.

For example, we are not authorised to notarise

  • Documents in a foreign language without a German translation. For a German translation of documents, you must contact a publicly appointed and sworn translator.
  • Private documents that are to be used privately, such as documents relating to inheritance and family law or financial documents. In this case, notarisation by a notary is recommended.
  • Notarised copies cannot be made of birth, marriage and death certificates. These documents will be reissued by the registry office of the place of the event if required.
  • Copies of cadastral registers and extracts from a cadastral map series. Notarisation is carried out by the Surveying and Land Registry Office.
  • Driving licences. Authentication is carried out by the driving licence authority.
  • Weapons licences, hunting licences and fishing licences. Notarisation is carried out by the weapons authority.

Prerequisites

You or a person authorised by you (no written power of attorney required) must come in person for a notarisation.

We are only allowed to provide a notarisation if the document was issued by a German authority or if you have the document notarised because you need to present it to a German authority or public institution.

For example, we frequently notarise school reports, identity documents (passport, ID card), employment references, licences to practise medicine and doctoral certificates.

Required documents

  • The original document. (If you only have a copy and no original, we can only use the notarisation to confirm conformity with the copy submitted to us)
  • Only the entire document can be notarised - not parts or specific pages.
  • On request, you can also receive several copies of the required notarisation.
  • Please do not bring any additional copies of your own. We only make all the copies required for notarisation ourselves.
