Certified true copies and notarization
Notarized copies of originals, ready for translation, apostille and use abroad.
Many institutions do not want your original but a certified true copy: a copy that a notary has compared with the original and certified as identical. This protects your originals and is often the first step before translation and apostille.
We arrange certified true copies with a Bulgarian notary and combine them with the translation and legalization the receiving institution requires. Signature certification for declarations and other private documents can also be arranged.

Frequently asked questions
Can a notarized copy be apostilled?
Yes. In Bulgaria a notarial certification can receive an apostille from the Ministry of Justice, which is often the simplest way to use a document abroad without sending the original.
Do I need to be present at the notary?
For a copy of a document, usually not: we can handle it with the original. For signature certification the signatory must be present in person; we can arrange an appointment with an interpreter.
Is the copy valid in other countries?
With an apostille or legalization and a certified translation, it is accepted by most foreign institutions. We check the requirements of your destination.
