What Is a Certified True Copy?
A certified true copy is an official endorsement confirming that a copy of a document is identical to its original, with no alteration, omission or addition. It is carried out by an authorised professional — a licensed lawyer or a notary public — who examines the original, compares it against the copy, then affixes a stamp, signature and date, giving the copy legal standing that spares you from submitting the original.
You need this service whenever an authority asks you to prove the authenticity of an important document while you prefer to keep the original — whether it is rare, sensitive or hard to reissue — so you submit a certified copy that earns the same trust and acceptance. For a fuller explanation, see our complete guide to certified true copies.

The Legal Standing of a Certified Copy
A certified true copy gives your document legal value equal to the original in most transactions; the licensed lawyer attests to its full conformity with the original, so it is accepted by official bodies, banks and educational institutions. You submit a trusted copy without risking your original document.
Does a Certified Copy Replace the Original?
In most cases, yes; the certified copy is enough to submit to the requesting party instead of the original. Some authorities, however, may ask to inspect the original for comparison and then accept the certified copy. We recommend confirming the receiving party’s requirements in advance, and we guide you to the best approach for each case.
