s 1091 Certification of copies as accurate
(1) A copy provided under section 1086 must be certified by the registrar as a true copy if the applicant expressly requests such certification. (3) A copy provided under section 1086, certified by the registrar (whose official position it is unnecessary to prove) to be an accurate record of the contents of the original document, is in all legal proceedings admissible in evidence— (a) as of equal validity with the original document, and (b) as evidence (in Scotland, sufficient evidence) of any fact stated in the original document of which direct oral evidence would be admissible. (4) The Secretary of State may make provision by regulations as to the manner in which such a certificate is to be provided in a case where the copy is provided in electronic form. (5) ... Copies provided by the registrar may, instead of being certified in writing to be an accurate record, be sealed with the registrar's official seal.
