Nuremberg as a business location
IT and software hub, automotive and cabling industry, market research and consumer goods – Nuremberg's industries generate very different translation needs. We assign the right specialist to every job.
Around DATEV and Immowelt: software, product and contract documentation and localisation – German ⇄ English and beyond.
For companies such as Leoni and MAN: technical documentation, requirement specifications and conformity papers – terminology-checked.
Around GfK: studies, reports and presentations – precise and confidential.
For DB Regio and the logistics of the metropolitan region: timetable, safety and contract documents in many languages.
For the toy and model-making cluster (e.g. Fleischmann) and its leading trade fairs: product, catalogue and marketing copy.
For public authorities, courts and law firms: certified translations of certificates, contracts and records by sworn translators.
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 Nuremberg is for English, Turkish, Greek, Russian, Romanian and Italian.
Certification, apostille & responsible authorities
Responsibility 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; which one depends on the document.
| Matter | Responsible authority for Nuremberg | What FÜD handles / what to watch for |
|---|---|---|
| Certified translation | Fachübersetzungsdienst Nuremberg Court-authorised 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 | Government of Middle Franconia (Regierung von Mittelfranken) – certification office Promenade 27, 91522 Ansbach | For documents issued in the administrative district of Middle Franconia. We translate the apostille note along with it. FÜD does not issue apostilles. |
| Apostille for court & notarial documents | President of the Regional Court (Landgericht) Nürnberg-Fürth Fürther Straße 110, 90429 Nürnberg | 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) Nuremberg | 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 competent authority. |
| Recognition of foreign professional & university qualifications | Competent chamber / recognition office (e.g. IHK Nürnberg for Middle Franconia, HWK for Middle Franconia) | 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' Office / Immigration Office, City of Nuremberg | 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 – so the certified translation remains fully usable in the destination country. 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:
On the ground
As an IT and software hub around DATEV, home to the automotive and cabling industry (Leoni, MAN) and market research (GfK), Nuremberg has a wide range of translation needs – from software and technical documentation through studies to certified certificates. As a trade-fair city, product and marketing copy is added.
At the same time, the international communities of the metropolitan region generate strong demand for certified translations of certificates and records for public authorities and recognition procedures. For every task we deploy a specialist in the relevant field – not the nearest generalist.
On the ground in Nuremberg
For Nuremberg we work entirely online and by post: upload your document or send it by post, and we deliver the finished version – sealed, in the case of certified translations – nationwide. In-person appointments at our locations are possible by arrangement; otherwise our Nuremberg translation service works entirely location-independently.
Certified translations are produced by court-authorised translators; they are accepted nationwide with the translator's certification note – regardless of which court granted the authorisation. For use abroad, we also translate the apostille note.
Quote & price
No subscription, no hidden items: we review length, subject area and language direction and give you a binding fixed price before you order – certified by our sworn translators on request, postage included. Once confirmed, it stands.
