About the procedure:
Preliminary proceedings
First of all, our notary Dr. Scheiber checks whether your request is illegal or immoral. Following the examination, the deed is to be drawn up. The deed can either be drawn up by you or your representative or, at your request, by our notary Dr. Scheiber. During the preliminary proceedings, our notary Dr. Scheiber performs his duties of instruction and examination.
Main proceedings
In the main proceedings, your will as a party is first established. Then you have to sign the deed. After signing, the deed is notarised by our notary Dr. Scheiber.
Follow-up procedure
A copy of the deed will be physically retained by our notary Dr. Scheiber for at least ten years, unless you agree with us on a longer retention period.
A notarial certification serves as documentary evidence and as a procedural control. The following types of certification are possible:
Certification of a transcript
Paragraphs, insertions, deletions and other changes in one of your documents can also be certified by us.
Certification of a copy
In our notary's office, documents submitted to us are also certified as to their completeness and correctness.
Certification of an extract
When certifying an extract, the essential parts of the document for the stated purpose are to be submitted to our notary Dr. Scheiber, who will carry out the certification following the examination that has taken place.
Certification of a translation
By certifying the translation of a deed, our notary Dr. Scheiber confirms that the translation of the deed is accurate.
Certification of a date
By certifying a date, our notary Dr. Scheiber records when and by whom a deed was delivered to him.
Certification of a signature
The certification of your signature is only possible in two cases. Either you sign the document in the presence of our notary Dr. Scheiber or you confirm to him that the signature is yours. Thus, the certification of a signature of an absent or deceased person is not possible.
Frequently asked questions about the notary office in Vaduz
Answers on appointments, documents, costs and procedure at the notary office of Dr Florian Scheiber in Vaduz.
Which notarial services does Dr Florian Scheiber offer in Vaduz?
Dr Florian Scheiber is a notary public in Vaduz (Herrengasse 30). The notary office handles notarial deeds (notarisation), certifications (signature, copy, transcript, extract, translation, date) and the drafting of contracts, for example on real estate, family matters, inheritance and companies (formation, restructuring, commercial register). Whether a matter can be handled electronically via ebeurkundung.li with eID.li is clarified with you in advance.
What is the difference between a certification and a notarial deed?
With a certification (Beglaubigung) the notary confirms, for example, that a signature was made by the person concerned or that a copy matches the document presented. With a notarial deed (Beurkundung) the notary drafts or records a deed on facts or legal relationships: the notary checks the identity and authority of the parties, explains the legal content and meaning of the deed (Art. 27 Notary Act, NotarG) and keeps a copy for at least ten years.
When can a signature be certified?
When you sign the document in the presence of the notary or confirm to the notary that the signature is yours. The signature of an absent or deceased person cannot be certified.
Which documents should I bring to the appointment?
An official photo ID for the identity check, in particular a passport (Art. 27(2) NotarG). If you act for a company, you prove your authority, for example, with a certified extract from the commercial register; if you act for another person, with a certified power of attorney for the transaction concerned. Please also bring the documents or draft contracts concerned. We will tell you before the appointment which documents are needed in your case.
Do I need an appointment?
Please arrange your appointment in advance by phone on +423 376 54 54 or by email to office@scheiber.law. Office hours: Monday to Thursday 08:00–12:00 and 13:30–17:30, Friday 08:00–12:00.
Can a notarial deed be done online?
The Liechtenstein Notary Act allows notarial deeds to be carried out wholly or partly via the state notarisation and certification system (Art. 49a NotarG). All parties are either physically present or connected in real time throughout the procedure. The ebeurkundung.li platform requires clients to have an eID.li, which can also be applied for by video identification. We discuss in advance whether your matter can be handled online.
How much does a certification or notarial deed cost?
Costs depend on the statutory requirements and the work involved in the individual case. On request, we will tell you the expected costs before the appointment.
Can I use a Liechtenstein notarial document abroad?
The firm also handles cross-border matters. Whether an apostille or further certification is required to use a document abroad depends on the country of destination; we clarify this with you before the appointment.
Do I have to involve a notary for my transaction?
That depends on the formal requirements for the transaction concerned. The Notary Act itself does not create an obligation to use a notary (Art. 2(2) NotarG). However, a notarial deed or certification may be required by other provisions or requested by an authority, a register or a contracting party.
