Certification, apostille & competent authorities

Which authority in Lüneburg is responsible for what?

Lüneburg is in Lower Saxony and falls within the Lüneburg Regional Court district. Who is responsible for certification and the apostille depends on the type of document – with the Lower Saxony peculiarity that civil-status and administrative documents are apostilled by the police directorate, not by a district government (Bezirksregierung). FÜD provides the translation suitable for recognition – the apostille itself is always issued by the competent authority, never by FÜD.

Apostille sequence

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.

The Lower Saxony peculiarity: for registry-office and administrative documents, responsibility lies not with a district government but with the Polizeidirektion Lüneburg; for court and notarial documents, with the president of the Lüneburg Regional Court. If you are unsure, we review your case and name the competent authority – issuance stays with that authority, not with FÜD.

Lüneburg & the north

Lüneburg and our translators.

With around 77,000 residents, Lüneburg is a Hanseatic and university town south-east of Hamburg whose wealth rested on salt for centuries. Its well-preserved old town and Leuphana University shape the city today, alongside a broad base of mid-sized businesses in automotive supply, fashion, food and surface technology. From this environment we translate technical documentation, regulatory texts, contracts and certificates.

Beyond Lüneburg we are active across the whole Hamburg metropolitan region and northern Lower Saxony: clients from Hamburg, Celle and the state capital Hanover use the same digital route; Bremen, Lübeck and Braunschweig reach us through the same order process too.
