Mönchengladbach as a business location
The largest city on the left Lower Rhine, with a long textile tradition – today, textile machinery and machine building, financial services and transport technology shape its translation needs. We assign the right specialist to every job.
Around the Trützschler Group and A. Monforts: technical documentation, operating and maintenance manuals and standards – German ⇄ English, with consistent terminology.
For Saurer (Schlafhorst) and Dörries Scharmann: specifications, inspection and conformity documents for the international series-production markets.
Around Santander Consumer Bank, whose German headquarters are in Mönchengladbach: contractual, regulatory and customer-related documents – confidential and terminology-checked.
For Scheidt & Bachmann: software, safety and training materials for parking, signalling and fare-collection systems bound for export.

Languages
We translate in both directions; every job goes to a native-speaker specialist who gets the regional variant right – for public authorities, a sworn translator produces the certified version. The strongest demand in Mönchengladbach is for English, Dutch, Turkish, Polish, Italian and Arabic.
Certification, apostille & responsible authorities
Mönchengladbach is in North Rhine-Westphalia, in the Düsseldorf administrative district (Regierungsbezirk Düsseldorf). 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 Mönchengladbach | What FÜD handles / what to watch for |
|---|---|---|
| Certified translation | Fachübersetzungsdienst Mönchengladbach Court-authorised translator (accepted nationwide) | We produce the certified translation with a certification note – accepted throughout Germany. |
| Apostille for civil-status & administrative documents | District Government of Düsseldorf (Bezirksregierung Düsseldorf) (for documents issued within the Düsseldorf administrative district) Cecilienallee 2, 40474 Düsseldorf | 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 Mönchengladbach Hohenzollernstraße 157, 41061 Mönchengladbach | 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) Mönchengladbach Rathausplatz 1, 41061 Mönchengladbach | We translate the certificate as a certified translation; the international (multilingual) certificate is available directly from the registry office. |
| Recognition of foreign school certificates | District Government of Düsseldorf (certificate recognition, NRW) | Certified translation for the recognition procedure; equivalence is decided by the competent authority. |
| Recognition of foreign professional qualifications | Competent chamber / recognition office (Chamber of Industry and Commerce or Chamber of Crafts) | 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 of the City of Mönchengladbach Rathausplatz 1, 41061 Mönchengladbach | 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:
