Can I send original documents if I won't need them back?

For my startup visa there are many required documents.

Some such documents would be

  • Birth certificate
  • Bank statements
  • Good-standing letter from my university (I know there is no education requirement anymore, but I will still send this).


They ask for the copies only. Would it be possible to simply send the originals? I do not need the originals. This is because they can always be re-issued by my government, so there is no need to create a copy. I don't want to make a copy because that would need to certificate such copy (which is pretty expensive considering I have LOTS of bank statements).
