Document legalisation - Sworn Chinese Translation Agency
Sworn Chinese translations and Chinese interpreting
In order to use Dutch documents in China, the documents must first be legalised. This used to be a difficult process that required the Department of State (CDC) and the Chinese Embassy to legalize the document. However, as of November 7, 2023, China has acceded to the Apostille Convention. This has made legalising documents easier.
We not only provide the certified translation into Chinese, but we can also take care of the legalisation for you.
During legalization/apostille, only the signature on the document is checked. The content of the document is therefore not examined in the Netherlands. There is a risk that the document will not be accepted in China. Therefore, check in China what requirements are imposed on the document and ask whether any supporting documents are required.
Please note: If you want to use the documents in Taiwan, different procedures apply.
