# Notarisation of up to 20 documents

## Summary

With an official notarisation, we confirm with our seal and signature that the copy we have made corresponds to the document you have submitted.
## Description

We frequently certify school reports, identity documents, employment references, licence to practise medicine or doctoral certificates, for example.

**Differentiation: Official and public notarisation**

* 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 notarisation is generally reserved for notaries in accordance with the Notarisation Act.
* Only the entire document can be notarised - not parts or certain pages of it. On request, you can also receive several copies of the required notarisation.

## Responsible Department

KVR
## 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.
* For foreign-language documents: German translation by a publicly sworn or recognised translator.

**Please do not bring your own copies. We only make all copies to be notarised ourselves.**

## Prerequisites

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

We may only 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 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**](http://www.urkundenstelle.de/)**at 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.
