Litigation and Court Reporting
Services in Germany

Germany is a party to the Hague Evidence Convention and allows depositions only within certain parameters, regardless of the nationality of the witness. Prior permission is required, and depositions must take place at the U.S. Consulate in Frankfurt. Audio/video recording of depositions is not permitted. Depositions taken outside these parameters are unauthorized and may lead to criminal penalties against the participants. Willing witnesses may travel to the nearby Czech Republic or Netherlands where depositions may be taken without limitation. For more information, request complimentary access to our International Deposition Guide or reach out to us. Planet Depos can assist you in navigating the restrictions in Germany and can coordinate court reporters and interpreters in Frankfurt, or can assist with coordinating court reporters, videographers, interpreters, and conference space in Prague, Brussels, and beyond.
