Certified true copy

If you do not want to hand over your original, or you need several copies, we arrange notary-certified true copies – with apostille and certified translation for use abroad.

When do you need a certified true copy?

Certified copies are typically requested when the original cannot or should not be handed over – diplomas, passports, unique company documents – or when the document must be filed with several authorities at once. Many foreign universities, employers and immigration offices specifically ask for certified copies.

Apostille on a certified copy

A plain photocopy cannot receive an apostille, but a notary-certified copy can. This is often the fastest route when authenticating the original would be complicated or slow.

How we handle it

We confirm how many copies you need and for what purpose, arrange the notarial certification, then the apostille and translation if required. Finished documents are sent by post or courier, or can be collected.
