Who certifies the Chinese translation of foreign documents?
Chinese translations of foreign documents cannot be produced by just anyone.
Every document: All foreign-language materials need a Chinese translation.
Format follows the authority: Whether a qualified agency seal is needed depends on current filing requirements.
We can arrange it: Translation and legalisation can be handled for you, settled as incurred.
What most people miss: Names, dates and job titles that disagree with the original are the most overlooked cause of return.
Local rules vary. Confirm current requirements with the authority before filing; outcomes rest with the authorities. This page summarises public information and hands-on experience. It is not legal advice and does not promise any approval outcome. Fees and processing times are confirmed in a written quotation.
