NOTARY BASICS: Understanding Apostille and Authentication Certificates
Apostille and Authentication Certificates
These validate the seal and signature of a Notary on a document for acceptance in a foreign country. Apostilles apply to countries party to the Hague Apostille Convention of 1961, streamlining the authentication process.
Authentication Certificates
For non-Hague Convention countries, multiple authentication certificates are needed. The process is: Notarization (by local Notaries Public/Solicitors) --> Legalization (by Ministry of Foreign affairs) --> Chinese Consulate legalization
Apostille Certificates
On 8th March 2023, China acceded to the "Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents" (hereinafter referred to as the Convention). This Convention entered into force in China on 7th November 2023. The use of public documents between China and other signatories to the Convention Do Not need to apply for consular legalization anymore. Any public document of any signatory state affixed with the Apostille is taken as legally effective in China and vice versa. Procedures was simplified: Notarization (by local Notaries Public/Solicitors) --> Apostille (by Ministry of Foreign affairs)
