Italian term or phrase: è conforme
This comes at the end of the Minutes for an Ordinary General Meeting:
There are only 2 signatures at the end: the President & the Secretary. No stamps, certification evidence etc.
"Il sottoscritto dichiara che il presente documento informatico *è conforme* a quello trascritto e sottoscritto sui libri sociali della società. ROMA lì (date) Rappresentante Legale o negoziale: ..."

I need a second opinion on exactly what this is saying. Its not a law so I cant see that it 'complies' or 'conforms'....

is a true copy
Explanation:
Any person with the requisite authority can certify a true copy.

You could phrase it is "...is hereby certified as a true copy", though there is no one single right answer and there are various ways of putting it in acceptable legal English.

One would presume here that the articles state that the legal representative is empowered to issue true copies of AGM minutes.
