What is the Delaware Certificate of Trust
Under Del. Code tit. 12, 3591 a certification of trust presents essential information about an existing trust. Instead of providing the entire trust instrument to people who do not have a beneficial interest in the trust, the fiduciary using the certificate ensures that irrelevant or personal information remains undisclosed.
The basic information provided by the certificate includes the trust's name and date, the identity of the trustor funding the trust, and whether or not the trust is revocable, including who is able to revoke the trust. The certificate also clarifies the name by which the trust is to vest title to assets.
The certificate also validates the trustee's authority to act on behalf of the trust by naming the acting trustee, enumerating the powers of the trustee relevant to the transaction at hand, and identifying the signing authority of co-trustees, if applicable. The recipient of a certification may request copies of excerpts from the trust instrument naming the trustee and establishing the trustee's powers, but doing so opens up certain liabilities (Del. Code tit. 12, 3591 (e),(h)).
A certificate of trust also contains the trust's taxpayer ID. This number is either a trustor's social security number, or an employer identification number issued by the IRS, depending on the type of trust. If the certificate is submitted for recording, this information can be redacted pursuant to Del. Code tit. 9, 9627.
Pursuant to Del. Code tit. 12, 3591(c), the certificate requires a statement that the trust has not been revoked, modified or amended in any way that would negate the representations contained within. The document serves as prima facie evidence of the facts presented, and a person relying upon a certification of trust can enforce the subject transaction against the trust property as if the representations contained in the certification were correct (Del. Code tit. 12, 3591(g)).
As with other instruments affecting real estate, include the legal description of the subject property. The certificate is signed by any acting trustee in the presence of a notary public. The preferred format for recorded documents varies across the three Delaware counties, so make sure the certificate's borders and layout meet local requirements.
Note that this instrument is separate from a certificate of statutory trust (under Del. Code tit. 12, 3810). Each case is unique, so contact an attorney with any questions or for complex situations.

This was easy to use and only contained one glaring error-where to send the completed form to finish the process. I’ve completed the form, does this mean I get the amended deed sent to me? I think not.
Your insights are invaluable to us and help us strive for better service. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts.

The technology and service was excellent. The content was too limited. I was seeking to find out about 61b deeds on the property and that was not provided.
We appreciate your feedback Patricia.

I found your site easy to use, though I would prefer an option to download to MWords but Adobe works well. The cost is very, very reasonable and provides documents I didn't know were needed. I would recommend this to anyone trying to deal with legal documents.
Thank you!

The Mineral Deed transfer form was pretty good. Could have used more info in the guide about where to find legal property descriptions and source of title. Also more space on the pdf for entering return addresses - there was room for only one; I needed three. I will be sending the form to the County Courthouse soon. I hope it works.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
