Notarisation of the maternity acknowledgement

If one or both parents do not (only) have German nationality, it may be necessary to have the maternity recognised in a document.

Description

Documentary establishment of parentage under foreign law.

If one or both parents do not (only) have German nationality, it may be necessary to have the maternity recognised in a document, e.g. in the case of Italian nationals. The personal presence of the person making the declaration is required for notarisation.

The responsibility for processing depends on the surname of the child or the expectant mother.

Required documents

  • valid identification document of the (expectant) mother
  • Birth certificate of the child or confirmation of the birth of the child, if this has not yet been notarised, or extract from the mother's passport, if the child has not yet been born
  • Telephone number where the mother can be reached to make an appointment
