It depends on the receiving authority. Send us your documents and tell us the canton or destination country – we will let you know whether a certified translation is sufficient or whether notarisation or an apostille is required.

Yes. The QES is the highest level of electronic signature under Swiss law (ZertES) and is legally equivalent to a handwritten signature.
