Remote Online Notarization in China

How Remote Online Notarization works in China

Remote Online Notarization (公证) lets residents, businesses and expats in China request notarial services entirely online, in English, Chinese or any other language. Our certified notaries verify your identity, apply a legally recognized notarial seal and signature, and issue notarized documents accepted by Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People's Republic of China (中华人民共和国外交部) and by ministries, courts, banks, registries and embassies worldwide.

Notary7 delivers every type of notarial act for China — including all forms of signature notarization and certified true copy notarization, sworn declarations and corporate acts — issued digitally or, where required, with an original wet-ink signature and seal. In China, notarization often precedes further authentication or legalization by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) and subsequent embassy/consulate legalization, depending on the document's destination country and purpose. Documents notarized abroad for use in China typically require an apostille or consular legalization process. While Notary7's notarization is globally accepted, the specific requirements in China for foreign documents often involve an additional layer of authentication by the Chinese embassy or consulate in the country where the document was issued. It is crucial to verify the latest regulations with the relevant Chinese authorities or Notary7 for specific document types. These processes ensure the document's legal validity and acceptance within China's administrative systems.
