School report - apply for replacement in case of loss

In Baden-Württemberg, schools keep these records for at least 30 years.

After 30 years, authority records must be offered to the state archive.

This includes records that are necessary for issuing replacement certificates.

They should delete them no later than 60 years after they leave the school.
