Certification, apostille & responsible authorities

Which authority in Bottrop is responsible for what?

Bottrop lies in North Rhine-Westphalia, in the Münster administrative district (Regierungsbezirk Münster); the Bottrop Local Court (Amtsgericht) belongs to the Essen Regional Court (Landgericht) district. 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.

Bottrop & the Ruhr region

Bottrop and our translators.

Home to our Bottrop translators, the city has just under 117,000 inhabitants and is one of the smallest major cities in Germany. It sits in the North Rhine-Westphalian Ruhr region, north of the Emscher on the edge of the Münsterland. Bottrop's neighbouring towns include Dinslaken and Essen as well as Gladbeck and Oberhausen; the city also borders the district of Recklinghausen. It is divided into three boroughs – Bottrop-Mitte, Bottrop-Kirchhellen and Bottrop-Süd – each made up of several districts. Bottrop's historical origins reach back to the Middle Ages: at that time the village of the same name belonged to the powerful and wealthy Werden Abbey near Essen.

Beyond Bottrop we are active across the whole northern Ruhr region: clients from Essen and Oberhausen use the same digital route, as do clients from Gelsenkirchen and the district of Recklinghausen. To the south our catchment reaches Duisburg – order handling and fixed-price logic stay the same.
