Certification, apostille & responsible authorities
Schweinfurt is in Bavaria, in the administrative district of Lower Franconia. 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 Schweinfurt | What FÜD handles / what to watch for |
|---|---|---|
| Certified translation | Fachübersetzungsdienst Schweinfurt Court-authorised translator (accepted nationwide) | We produce the certified translation with a certification note – accepted throughout Germany. |
| Apostille for civil-status & administrative documents | Government of Lower Franconia (Regierung von Unterfranken) (for documents issued in the Lower Franconia district) Peterplatz 9, 97070 Würzburg | 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 Schweinfurt Rüfferstraße 1, 97421 Schweinfurt | Applies e.g. to commercial-register extracts, notarial deeds and court decisions. Translation includes the note. |
| Civil-status certificates (birth, marriage, death) | Schweinfurt registry office Markt 1, 97421 Schweinfurt | We translate the certificate as a certified translation; the international (multilingual) certificate is available directly from the registry office. |
| Recognition of foreign school certificates | Certificate-recognition office for the Free State of Bavaria (Munich) | Certified translation for the recognition procedure; equivalence is decided by the authority. |
| Recognition of foreign professional qualifications | Competent chamber / recognition office (e.g. IHK Würzburg-Schweinfurt) | 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, vehicles, immigration office | Citizens' Service / Immigration Office, City of Schweinfurt Brückenstraße 14, 97421 Schweinfurt | 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 and where you need an apostille? We review 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:
