Remote Online Notarization in Germany

How Remote Online Notarization works in Germany

Remote Online Notarization (Beglaubigung) lets residents, businesses and expats in Germany request notarial services entirely online, in English, German or any other language. Our certified notaries verify your identity, apply a legally recognized notarial seal and signature, and issue notarized documents accepted by Federal Office of Administration (Bundesverwaltungsamt) (Bundesverwaltungsamt) and by ministries, courts, banks, registries and embassies worldwide.

Notary7 delivers every type of notarial act for Germany — including all forms of signature notarization and certified true copy notarization, sworn declarations and corporate acts — issued digitally or, where required, with an original wet-ink signature and seal. In Germany, notarization (Beglaubigung) by a German notary is often required for significant legal transactions such as real estate purchases, company formations, and certain powers of attorney. For documents originating outside Germany to be accepted, they typically require an apostille or consular legalization, depending on whether the issuing country is a signatory to the Hague Apostille Convention. Notary7 ensures that documents prepared for use in Germany comply with these local formalities, facilitating their cross-border acceptance.
