Do you need a certified copy of your ID or certificate or a certified copy of a document? Official certification confirms that the copy is identical to the original.

The official certification of copies and transcripts can be carried out by the authorities and courts of the Free State of Saxony and the municipalities, administrative associations and administrative districts in whose respective area your place of residence is located. The following can be certified:

• Transcripts of documents issued by an authority
• Transcripts of documents that you need to present to an authority

Many towns and municipalities offer the certification of copies and transcripts as a service in the citizens' registration office or in the registration office.

To do this, contact the foreign representation of the respective country (-> Amt24 service "Authentication of public documents from abroad by legalisation")
