Certification, apostille & responsible authorities
Norderstedt belongs to the district of the Regional Court (Landgericht) of Kiel in Schleswig-Holstein. 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 Norderstedt | What FÜD handles / what to watch for |
|---|---|---|
| Certified translation | Fachübersetzungsdienst Norderstedt Court-authorised translator (accepted nationwide) | We produce the certified translation with a certification note – accepted throughout Germany. |
| Apostille for civil-status & administrative documents | Ministry of the Interior, Local Affairs, Housing and Sport (Ministry of the Interior of Schleswig-Holstein); preliminary certification via the deeds and registry-office supervision of the Segeberg district (Kreis Segeberg) Düsternbrooker Weg 92, 24105 Kiel | 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 Kiel Schützenwall 31–35, 24114 Kiel | Applies e.g. to commercial-register extracts, notarial deeds and court decisions. Translation includes the note. |

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 and where you need an apostille? We review your case and name the responsible authority for you – 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:
