Service Description

Anyone wishing to be officially authorized as an interpreter must meet certain requirements.

  • the identity of the holder,
  • the mother tongue and the target languages and
  • the subject areas for which linguistic and technical competence have been demonstrated.

Who should I contact?

To the President of the Higher Regional Court of Schleswig-Holstein (OLG).

Which documents are required?
