The certification of a signature is only possible for submission to an authority. A personal interview is required for this! Official notarizations are not possible for private documents that are to be used privately. Signature authentication for other purposes or public authentication (§ 129 BGB), as well as signatures without associated text can be requested from a notary.

Documents required
