Zustellungsurkunde

Deutsch > Englisch Rechts- und Patentwesen Recht (allgemein)
Proofreading question: Which translation for "Zustellungsurkunde" would be correct and preferrable for Great Britain/the U.S./internationally?

German context: "Es wird eine Zustellungsurkunde benötigt ... Daher wird um Vermittlung der Zustellung über ... gebeten ..."

"A notification by writ/An affidavit of service is required which should contain evidence about the receipt of the document. For this reason, the writ/affidavit must be issued by a law agency..."

And would it be enough to translate "Vermittlung der Zustellung" like above or would it need to be "mediation/service..."?

(formal) Certificate (Can: return) of service; (postal) proof of delivery

Depends what form the Urkunde takes: if by a process-server or bailiff, it is a cert. of service.

Return of service works well in Canada.
Note from asker:
I think since the context isn't very clear, I'd opt for "certificate of service", as you suggested, and that a service be effected.
