Certified True Copy Services
A Certified True Copy is a duplicate of a primary document that has been officially verified and attested by an authorized professional—such as a Certified Public Accountant (CPA)—to be a true, complete, and exact replica of the original.
Typically produced from a high-quality photocopy, a Certified True Copy features an official endorsement, stamp, and signature. This formal attestation serves as legal and administrative proof that the duplicate accurately reflects the original source record without any alterations.
Why is it Required?
Financial institutions, regulatory bodies, and government departments maintain stringent administrative and compliance frameworks. To mitigate risk and prevent fraud, these entities enforce strict documentation standards. Many agencies mandate the submission of Certified True Copies to legally substantiate that the documents provided are authentic reproductions of the original files.
Core Applications
Certified True Copies are widely required across international corporate, legal, and personal transactions, including:
