Do the aforementioned certificates actually exist?Yes.
If so, are they equivalent to the British BMDs?
Civil registration began in Germany in 1792 ...
Here is a general overview ...
https://www.thoughtco.com/germany-vital-records-1422812
and this website lists where you can find various records online (*)
https://germanroots.com/germandata.html
but as you can see, the records are "all over the place", there is no german equivalent to the "GRO", so you will need more information to be able to know where to look.
(*) mostly pay-sites
Sorry - in your other topic, when I said there isn't much online, I meant in the sense of equivalents to freeBMD, freeREG, freeCEN, and other such (free) sites.
