A method and apparatus by which an original document in one location may be transmitted by image transmission, facsimile, or the like, to another location, verified as to accuracy, certified as a replacement for the original, and the original then destroyed so that the verified copy becomes, in legal effect, the only original of the document; wherein this is accomplished by placing the original in an enclosed, locked, tamper proof environment from which it is transmitted by image transmission, facsimile, or the like, to a different location in which the copy is maintained in a locked and tamper proof environment; the copy is compared by electronic or optical scanning, or other such arrangement, to the original to verify accuracy; when verified, the copy is coded so as to indicate the only useable, as though the only, original copy of its type and simultaneously the original is automatically destroyed or voided in its locked environment.
