Description

A legalized signature proves that your signature is genuine. This is necessary, for example, if you are receiving visitors from abroad who need to apply for a visa. A company or organization may also ask for it. The legalization only proves that your signature is genuine. It says nothing about the content of the document or completed form.

You sign the document or form in front of the municipality official. The official compares that signature with the signature on your ID.
