Certification, apostille & competent authorities
Wiesbaden lies in Hesse, Darmstadt administrative region. Which authority is responsible for certification and apostille depends on the type of document. FÜD provides the recognisable translation – the apostille is always issued by the competent authority, not by FÜD.
| Matter | Competent authority for Wiesbaden | What FÜD handles / what to watch for |
|---|---|---|
| Certified translation | Fachübersetzungsdienst Wiesbaden Sworn translator (accepted nationwide) | We produce the certified translation with a certification note – accepted throughout Germany, regardless of the court of authorisation. |
| Apostille for civil-status & administrative documents | Regional Council Darmstadt (Regierungspräsidium Darmstadt) (certification office for all of Hesse) Luisenplatz 2, 64283 Darmstadt | We tell you whether an apostille is needed and translate the apostille note. FÜD does not issue apostilles. |
| Apostille for court & notarial documents | President of the Regional Court (Landgericht) of Wiesbaden Mainzer Straße 124, 65189 Wiesbaden | Applies e.g. to commercial-register extracts, notarial deeds and court decisions. Translation incl. note. |
| Civil-status documents (birth, marriage, death) | Registry office (Standesamt) Wiesbaden Marktstraße 16, 65183 Wiesbaden | We translate the certificate with certification; the international (multilingual) certificate is available directly from the registry office. |
| Recognition of foreign school certificates | Competent State School Authority / Hesse Ministry of Education | Certified translation for the recognition procedure; equivalence is decided by the competent authority. |
| Recognition of foreign professional & academic qualifications | In Hesse e.g. Regional Council Darmstadt or the competent chamber | We provide the formally correct translation of 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, immigration office | Citizens' office / immigration office of the state capital Wiesbaden Alcide-de-Gasperi-Straße 3, 65197 Wiesbaden | Certified translation of the required documents – agree 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 competent authority – the issuing itself 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 free:
Wiesbaden & Rhine-Main
Wiesbaden is the state capital of Hesse and, with around 280,000 inhabitants, the second-largest city in the state. It sits on the right bank of the Rhine opposite Mainz and is one of the oldest spa towns in Europe. Today Wiesbaden is home to the Hesse state parliament, the Federal Statistical Office and the Federal Criminal Police Office, as well as being a major insurance and finance location – with a correspondingly high need for certified, commercial and official translations.
Beyond Wiesbaden we work across the whole Rhine-Main region: clients from Mainz across the river, from Frankfurt am Main, Rüsselsheim and Darmstadt use the same digital route; Offenbach and Hanau are served through the same order handling.
On the ground in Wiesbaden
Over 98% of translation jobs for Wiesbaden run entirely online: upload your document or send it by post, and we deliver the finished version – sealed, in the case of certified translations – nationwide by post. In-person submission is possible by appointment.
