(4) The authenticationverification of the veracity of public documents between the Member States is governed by various international conventions and agreements. Those conventions and agreements predate the establishment of administrative and judicial cooperation at Union level, including the adoption of sectorial Union law instruments addressing the issue of cross-border acceptance of specific public documents. In any case, the requirements imposed by those instruments can be burdensome for citizens and companies or other undertakings and do not provide for satisfactory solutions for an easier acceptance of public documents between the Member States.
