What costs will I incur?
Notarial fees are regulated by federal law which guarantees a transparent, just and equal cost structure for all clients and transactions concerned. The Notary is prohibited by law from charging higher or lower fees than those stipulated in the law. Discretion is allowed to the Notary only within close borders.
Regular business examinations carried out by the President of the competent Regional Court (Landgericht) also cover the proper charging of fees. The notarial scale of fees is based on the object value of the transaction. This has the advantage that all our services are included in the authentication fees, including all pre-transaction counselling and drafts – regardless of the difficulty or complexity of the subject matter as well as the effort or the number of appointments for counselling.
