Pre-authentication by the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen

The Department Law and Foundation of the University of Göttingen (Von-Siebold-Str. 2, 37075 Göttingen,) carries out the pre-certification for all public documents of the University of Göttingen, in particular for

1. preliminary, intermediate and final examination certificates
2. certificates for the award of an academic title or degree,
3. study books, and
4. for translations in English, which are attached to the documents mentioned under 1. and 2. in accordance with the examination regulations.

Requirements for the performance of preliminary certifications
The original document must be presented, as it is mandatory that the preliminary certification be made on this document itself. Therefore, please note: Pre-certification of a copy or officially certified copy of the document is generally not possible.

The original document presented must bear the handwritten signature of the respective authorized signatory and be provided with an embossed, colour-printed or machine-made seal of the University of Göttingen.

Costs for preliminary certifications
Pre-certifications on the part of the University of Göttingen are carried out within the framework of administrative assistance for the Göttingen Police Headquarters and are therefore not subject to a charge for the applicant.
