Purpose of the notarization:

A notarized copy is a photocopy of a filed document (the original), legal or other, in its entirety that is sworn to be a true copy by a competent authority. When presenting copies of specific documents, this official confirmation is sometimes required in order for the copy to serve the same legal purpose as the original document.

Requirements:

To notarize a true copy, you must:

1. Appear in person at the Embassy,

2. Present your identification (valid passport, ID), and

3. Pay the consular fee in cash.

NOTE: We will not notarize a copy of any proof of identification (such as passports, ID cards, drivers licenses etc.), bankbooks, cheques, tickets, coupons, geometric or technical designs. We will also not notarize a copy of an original document that conflicts with Czech legislation, has modifications that could impair its credibility, or its contents may not be reliably evaluated by the Embassy.
