Notarization of identity documents 
The certification confirms that the content of the copy is identical to the original document. However, the certification does not certify the authenticity or validity of the original.
This service is offered exclusively on a municipal basis. Your request can therefore only be processed if you have your main place of residence in Bremen.
As of now, you do not need an appointment for this request at the BürgerServiceCenters Mitte, Nord and Stresemannstrasse. You can do this at the express counter. Please note the different opening hours of the express counters in the various BürgerServiceCenters.
