Certification, apostille & responsible authorities
Which authority in Wuppertal is responsible for what?
Wuppertal is in North Rhine-Westphalia, Düsseldorf administrative region. 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 Wuppertal | What FÜD handles / what to watch for |
|---|---|---|
| Certified translation | Fachübersetzungsdienst Wuppertal 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 | Düsseldorf District Government (Bezirksregierung Düsseldorf), Division 21 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 Wuppertal Eiland 1, 42103 Wuppertal | 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) Wuppertal Johannes-Rau-Platz 1, 42275 Wuppertal | We translate the certificate as a certified translation; the international (multilingual) certificate is available directly from the registry office. |
| Recognition of foreign school certificates | Düsseldorf District Government – NRW certificate-recognition office (Zeugnisanerkennungsstelle NRW) Cecilienallee 2, 40474 Düsseldorf | Certified translation for the recognition procedure; equivalence is decided by the competent authority. |
| Recognition of foreign professional & university qualifications | Authority responsible for the profession (e.g. district government, chamber, university) | 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, immigration office | Immigration Office / Naturalisation Office of the City of Wuppertal Friedrich-Engels-Allee 28, 42103 Wuppertal | Certified translation of the required documents – confirm the language direction and purpose in advance. |
Order & addresses
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.

On the ground
Wuppertal and our translators.
As the cradle of the chemical industry and home to chemicals (Axalta), insurance (Barmenia, Barmer) and tool-making world leaders (KNIPEX), Wuppertal has a translation need shaped by technology and business – from safety data sheets and manuals through policies to certified certificates.
At the same time, the international communities of the Bergisches Land generate strong demand for certified certificates and records for public authorities and recognition procedures. For every task we deploy a specialist in the relevant field – not the nearest generalist.
