What Is Document Identity Certification
Identity certification is a notarial procedure in which the notary confirms complete identity of the content of two documents. Most commonly, this involves paper and electronic versions of the same document, but it can also be two paper copies. Governed by Articles 81, 82, and 83 of the Fundamentals of Notarial Legislation of the Russian Federation.
At Translation Agency "Universal", the notary certifies document identity on-site — in our office near a metro station. The procedure takes 15–30 minutes.
Types of Identity Certification
Paper → Electronic
The notary confirms that the electronic document is identical to the paper original. An electronic document is created with the notary's qualified electronic signature (QES). Required for submission to courts, government agencies, and banks.
Electronic → Paper
The notary confirms that the printed document is identical to the electronic original. Relevant for documents received via government portals, tax service, or electronic document systems. The result is a paper document with certification inscription.
Identity of Two Documents
The notary confirms that two paper documents contain identical information. Used in corporate procedures, international transactions, and registration of foreign company representative offices.
For Foreign Documents
Documents in a foreign language — translation first, then identity certification. Relevant for corporate documents of foreign companies, diplomas, and certificates. Translation and certification in one place.
When Identity Certification Is Required
- Court proceedings — submitting electronic documents to arbitration courts, civil cases
- Government agencies — Tax Service, Rosreestr, immigration service, when a document is received electronically
- Banks — account opening, lending, when founding documents are in electronic format
- Corporate procedures — branch registration, reorganization, change of director
- International transactions — confirming document identity in remote signing
- Electronic document flow — transitioning a company to electronic records, verifying paper archives

How It Works
- Step 1. You bring both documents (or the original + electronic version on a storage device).
- Step 2. The notary compares the content of both documents.
- Step 3. If the content fully matches, the notary places the certification inscription, signature, and seal.
- Step 4. The certified document is issued immediately.
