Certification, apostille & competent authorities
Which authority in Salzburg is responsible for what?
Salzburg lies in the federal state of Salzburg. Who is responsible for certification and the apostille depends on the type of document. An apostille is issued solely by the competent authority; FÜD does not issue apostilles. We advise whether your destination country requires an apostille and deliver the certified translation in a form the receiving body will recognise.
| Matter | Competent authority for Salzburg | What FÜD handles / what to watch for |
|---|---|---|
| Certified translation | Fachübersetzungsdienst Salzburg Court-sworn & certified translator (recognised throughout Austria) | We produce the certified translation with a round stamp and certification clause – recognised in Austria under Section 14 SDG without any further legalisation. |
| Apostille for judicial & notarial documents | President of the Regional Court Salzburg | Applies to, e.g., commercial-register extracts, notarial deeds and court rulings. We translate the document including the apostille note. FÜD does not issue the apostille. |
| Apostille for other administrative & civil-status documents | Office of the Salzburg State Government (Amt der Salzburger Landesregierung) | We tell you whether an apostille is required and translate the apostille note along with the document. |
| Federal documents & certification for use abroad | BMEIA – Office for Consular Legalisation, Vienna | For documents issued by federal authorities we deliver the translation in a form the receiving body will recognise, including the note. |
| Civil-status documents (birth, marriage, death) | Salzburg Register Office (Standesamt Salzburg) | We produce the certified translation of the certificate; the international (multilingual) certificate is issued directly by the register office. |
| Recognition of foreign diplomas & qualifications | The competent Austrian body (e.g. ENIC NARIC Austria/BMBWF, a chamber, a university) | Certified translation for the evaluation or recognition procedure; the competent body decides on equivalence. |
Order & responsibility
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 competent authority, not with FÜD.
Responsible: judicial & notarial documents → President of the Regional Court Salzburg · other & civil-status documents → Office of the Salzburg State Government. Source: BMEIA (bmeia.gv.at) and Austrian Justice (justiz.gv.at), as at 08/2026.
