Important Information considering Certification and Authentification

Various authorities in Germany and abroad require a document to be certified or a signature to be authenticated by a notary. When certifying a copy, the notary only checks that the document presented to him is identical to the copy he is issuing. When authenticate signatures, the notary only checks whether the correct person is signing the document using an official photo ID. Please bring a valid passport, Personalausweis or German Residence Permit wih you if you want us to authenticate your signature. For security reasons, we will check the authenticity of your ID Card.

If you want to use a document abroad, you will usually need an additional special notarization. The so-called apostille is issued by the President of the Regional Court of Bonn. We can submit the document to the Regional Court of Bonn on your behalf and apply for the apostille to be issued. Other countries require the time-consuming legalization of the document by a consulate. Please check in advance with the foreign authorities what type of proof they require.
