Certification, apostille & responsible authorities
Which authority in Osnabrück is responsible for what?
Osnabrück is in Lower Saxony. The regional administrative districts were dissolved here in 2005 – so the apostille is not issued by the city administration, but, depending on the type of document, by one of two authorities. FÜD provides the recognition-ready translation; the apostille is always issued by the competent authority, not by FÜD.
| Matter | Responsible authority for Osnabrück | What FÜD handles / what to watch for |
|---|---|---|
| Certified translation | Fachübersetzungsdienst Osnabrück 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 Osnabrück (in Lower Saxony the police issue the apostille on administrative documents) Heger-Tor-Wall 18, 49078 Osnabrück | 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 Osnabrück Neumarkt 2, 49074 Osnabrück | 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) Osnabrück | 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 certificate-recognition office (Osnabrück location) | Certified translation for the recognition procedure; equivalence is decided by the competent authority. |
| Recognition of foreign professional qualifications | Responsible chamber (IHK / Chamber of Skilled Crafts) or recognition office | 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 | Certified translation of the police clearance certificate, incl. any apostille note. |
| Residence, naturalisation, vehicle registration, immigration office | Citizens' services / immigration office or vehicle-registration office of the City of Osnabrück | Certified translation of the required documents – confirm the language direction and purpose in advance. |
Order & the Lower Saxony specifics
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.
Unlike in many federal states, in Lower Saxony the apostille for civil-status and administrative documents is issued by the Police Directorate Osnabrück; for court and notarial documents by the President of the Regional Court (Landgericht) of Osnabrück. Unsure which authority you need? We review your case – issuing the apostille itself stays with the authority, not with FÜD.

Osnabrück & the Osnabrück region
Osnabrück and our translators.
The founding of the city of our Osnabrück translators is bound up with important European trade routes: Charlemagne founded the Diocese of Osnabrück in 780, and the city later became a member of the Hanseatic League. After the Thirty Years' War, the Peace of Westphalia was negotiated in Osnabrück and Münster; the title "City of Peace" recalls it. Osnabrück is also the birthplace of the writer Erich Maria Remarque and the painter Felix Nussbaum.
Beyond Osnabrück, we are active across the Osnabrück region and neighbouring Westphalia: clients from Bielefeld, Münster and Hanover use the same digital route through the same order-handling process.
