Certification, apostille & responsible authorities
Which authority on Rügen is responsible for what?
Rügen belongs to the district of Vorpommern-Rügen in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. 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 Rügen | What FÜD handles / what to watch for |
|---|---|---|
| Certified translation | Fachübersetzungsdienst Rügen Court-authorised translator (accepted nationwide) | We produce the certified translation with a certification note – accepted throughout Germany. |
| Apostille for civil-status & administrative documents | Ministry of the Interior and Construction of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania (Ministerium für Inneres und Bau), Schwerin Alexandrinenstraße 1, 19055 Schwerin | 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 Stralsund Frankendamm 17, Stralsund | Applies e.g. to commercial-register extracts, notarial deeds and court decisions. Translation includes the note. |
| Civil-status certificates (birth, marriage, death) | Competent registry office (Standesamt) on Rügen (e.g. Bergen auf Rügen) Standesamt Bergen auf Rügen: Markt 5/6, 18528 Bergen auf Rügen | We translate the certificate as a certified translation; the international (multilingual) certificate is available directly from the registry office. |
| Recognition of foreign school certificates | Competent recognition authority in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania | Certified translation for the recognition procedure; equivalence is decided by the competent authority. |
| Recognition of foreign professional qualifications | Competent chamber (IHK/HWK) or recognition body | 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 of the District of Vorpommern-Rügen Carl-Heydemann-Ring 67, 18437 Stralsund | Certified translation of the required documents – confirm the language direction and purpose in advance. |
Order of steps for the apostille
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 check your case and name the responsible authority – issuing it remains with the authority, not with FÜD.

Rügen & Vorpommern
Rügen and our translators.
At around 926 km², Rügen is Germany's largest island, lying off the Vorpommern Baltic coast, with Bergen auf Rügen as its administrative centre. Chalk cliffs, the fashionable Baltic seaside resorts of Binz, Sellin and Baabe, and the Jasmund National Park make the island one of Germany's best-known tourism regions. Economically, tourism, the fishing industry, the Sassnitz-Mukran ferry and freight port, and the offshore wind industry shape translation demand.
Beyond Rügen we are active across the whole of Vorpommern: clients from the Hanseatic city of Stralsund on the mainland opposite the island, from Greifswald and the maritime metropolis of Rostock use the same digital order process; Neubrandenburg and the state capital Schwerin are served through the same process too.
