You will receive the certified translation of the civil status certificate from Sweden by a translator sworn in for Swedish in Germany.
You need the certified translation of the certificate of no impediment, for example, if you want to get married in Germany. The certificate proves your marital status in Sweden, i.e., whether you are married, widowed, or single.
Registry offices and authorities throughout Germany officially recognize the certified translation from Swedish.
To verify the authenticity of certificates abroad, they are authenticated in the country of origin through an apostille or legalization.
As the civil status certificate falls under the Regulation (EU) 2016/1191 of 6 July 2016, it is exempt from apostille requirements within the EU. Therefore, you do not need to have your Swedish certificate of no impediment additionally certified if you wish to present it in Germany.
