Certification, apostille & responsible authorities
Hildesheim is located in Lower Saxony; regional government authorities (Bezirksregierungen) no longer exist here since 2005. Who is responsible for certification and apostille depends on the type of document. FÜD provides the recognition-ready translation – the apostille is always issued by the competent authority, not by FÜD.
| Matter | Responsible authority for Hildesheim | What FÜD handles / what to watch for |
|---|---|---|
| Certified translation | Fachübersetzungsdienst Hildesheim Court-authorised translator (accepted nationwide) | We produce the certified translation with a certification note – accepted throughout Germany. |
| Apostille for civil-status & administrative documents | Police Directorate Göttingen (Polizeidirektion Göttingen) – in Lower Saxony the police directorates issue apostilles for administrative and civil-status documents Groner Landstraße 51, 37081 Göttingen | We tell you whether an apostille is required and translate the apostille note along with it. FÜD does not issue apostilles. |
| Apostille for court & notarial documents | President of the Regional Court (Landgericht) of Hildesheim Kaiserstraße 60, 31134 Hildesheim | Applies e.g. to commercial-register extracts, notarial deeds and court decisions. Translation includes the note. |
| Civil-status certificates (birth, marriage, death) | Registry office (Standesamt) Hildesheim (city office) Markt 2, 31134 Hildesheim | We translate the certificate as a certified translation; the international (multilingual) certificate is available directly from the registry office. |
| Recognition of foreign school certificates | Regional State Office for Schools and Education (RLSB) Lower Saxony; for university degrees: ZAB (KMK) | Certified translation for the recognition procedure; equivalence is decided by the competent authority. |
| Recognition of foreign professional qualifications | Competent chamber / recognition body (e.g. IHK Hannover, Chamber of Skilled Crafts Hildesheim-South Lower Saxony) | We provide the formally correct translation of your diploma, transcript and professional certificate. |
| Police clearance certificate for use abroad | Federal Office of Justice (BfJ), Bonn (Adenauerallee 99–103, 53113 Bonn); apostille on federal documents: Federal Office of Foreign Affairs | Certified translation of the police clearance certificate, incl. any apostille note. |
| Residence, naturalisation, vehicle registration, immigration office | Citizens' services / immigration office of the city or district (Landkreis) of Hildesheim Landkreis Hildesheim: Bischof-Janssen-Straße 31, 31134 Hildesheim | Certified translation of the required documents – confirm the language direction and purpose in advance. |
If the receiving body requires an apostille, it belongs before the translation: it is affixed to the original document first, and we then translate the document including the apostille note.
Not sure whether or where you need an apostille? We check your case and name the responsible authority – issuing it stays with the authority, not with FÜD.
We handle urgent jobs on an express basis – after a brief feasibility check we confirm a binding deadline and fixed price. For the most requested combinations we agree the delivery date with you beforehand so the right specialist is available:
Hildesheim & the Hanover region
Hildesheim is a university city of around 101,000 people south of Hanover; its St Mary's Cathedral and St Michael's Church are UNESCO World Heritage sites. Economically the city is shaped by automotive electronics (Bosch), light-metal casting (KSM Castings) and special-vehicle construction, along with the University of Hildesheim and its Institute for Translation Studies and Technical Communication. This creates demand for technical, academic and certified translations.
Beyond Hildesheim we work throughout the Hanover region and southern Lower Saxony: clients from Hanover, Braunschweig and Salzgitter use the same digital route; Celle, Göttingen and Wolfsburg reach us through the same order process.
