Must the content of the copy be identical to the original?
In Clause 5 and Clause 6 Article 2 of Decree 23/2015/ND-CP, the regulations on original documents and copies are as follows:
"Original document" refers to papers, documents issued for the first time, re-issued, or issued upon registration by a competent authority or organization; papers, documents created by individuals that are verified and stamped by competent authorities or organizations.
"Copy" refers to a photocopy from the original document or a typewritten copy with content fully and accurately reflecting the content recorded in the original register. => Therefore, under the above regulations, the content of the copy must be precisely identical to that of the original document. In my view, the copy must mirror the original perfectly. Every period and comma must be accurate. Sincerely.
