Thanks Alison,
your answer fitted my context better and it immediately rang a bell. Partial burn-out so early in the morning?
Both answers were fine and usuable, but I can unfortunately not split or give points to both of you.

gleichlautende (bescheinigte/beglaubigte) Abschrift/Ablichtung/Fotokopie


Explanation:

The following (approximately) are shown by Dietl/Lorenz – Wörterbuch für Recht, Wirtschaft und Politik:

"gleichlautende (bescheinigte) Abschrift" = "certified true (and correct) copy"

"gleichlautende Abschrift" = "true (and correct) copy"

and similar phrases also draw many Google hits, including:

http://www.altmuehlnet.de/gemeinden/moernsheim/Standesamt/au...

"beglaubigte Abschrift/beglaubigte Fotokopie" = "true certified copy"

"(b) einer von einem Vertretungsberechtigten des Sammelverwahrers beglaubigten Ablichtung der Sammelurkunde." = "(b) a copy of the Collective Note certified by a duly authorised officer of the relevant Collective Custodian as being a true copy thereof."
