This is processed in Germany and is called a BMW Mobile Traditions Certificate. See description below:

BMW Original Production Certificate (your baby's birth certificate):
BMW item number: MT-Cert

Add to your pride of ownership - and authenticate your BMW's original specifications - with a certified Original Production Certificate from the BMW Mobile Tradition Archives. This handsome document, printed on watermarked paper, contains all existing specifications for your car or motorcycle. This includes items such as date of manufacture and delivery, engine and chassis number, original equipment and more - a valuable resource for the vintage BMW collector.

The BMW Certificate, housed in a protective folder is $90 and can be ordered by printing the order form and faxing it, along with proof of ownership and your credit card information, to 1-888 Fax-2-BMW (1-888-329-2269).

NOTE: sticker on my 02 was $66k

engine serial number????

OMG, i was looking for an engine serial number for my 4.6iS when i had to register the car in Russia. The BMW NA and BMW AG both said that they do not have that information, which i thought, was very hard to believe...

in my case that info would have been worth the $100 - this way the russians would not have to dig into the engine bay and screw up my car!!!
