Frequently asked questions

What should I look for when choosing a notary in Munich?

Start with the type of document you need and look for relevant experience. For a property purchase, marriage contract or company formation, ask how the office handles similar matters, what documents are required and how the consultation will be organised.

Clear communication and practical follow-up are especially useful when several people or documents are involved.

Can I find English-language notarial support in Munich?

Some Munich notaries offer English-language support, which can be helpful for company formations and other matters involving international clients. Confirm the available language before arranging the appointment.

Also ask whether explanations, draft documents and follow-up communication can all be provided in English.

What documents should I prepare for a first notary consultation?

The documents depend on the matter. You may need valid identification, personal details for everyone involved and paperwork connected with the property, marriage agreement or planned company.

Contact the office in advance with a short outline of your situation and ask for a tailored document checklist rather than relying on a generic list.

Can a notary appointment be arranged online?

An online introductory appointment may be available, depending on the office and the type of matter. It can help you explain your situation, understand the next steps and clarify which documents are needed.

Formal notarisation or signatures may still require an in-person appointment, so confirm the full process before booking.

Does a notary provide legal or tax advice for every situation?

A notary explains and records the legal transaction within the scope of the appointment, but not every personal, tax or commercial question will be covered in the same way. Ask what the consultation includes and seek separate specialist advice when your situation involves detailed tax planning, litigation or broader business strategy.
