办理国内委托公证 (Edit Me)

Details:

If you only have one document, it might be okay to use a 代办公司 which charges about $120 - $150 per document. But if you have a few documents, you probably want to do it yourself. It is not that bad. I have done it recently by myself because I have quite a few documents. By the way, for US citizens, the Chinese embassy does 认证, and for Chinese citizens, they do 公证. Also, you don't have to start from the state you live. I live in Virginia, but I took a short cut to get everything done in DC to speed up the process (I learned this trick from another parent). Here are the steps in case you want to try it.

1. Follow the format on the Chinese Embassy website to prepare your documents in both Chinese and English (the US State Department requires English). I put both Chinese and English on the same page with translation paragraph by paragraph..

2. Take your document to a notary public in DC to have your signature notarized. The notary can be one in your bank for free or in the UPS store for $2. I used a UPS store that opened before my bank so that I could get everything done on the same day. Also in case you don't know yet, you can use your cell phone to pay for the street parking.

3. Take the document to the DC government where the notary's seal and signature are authenticated.
The Office of Notary Commissions and Authentications commissions District of Columbia
441 4th Street, NW
Suite 810 South
Washington, DC 20001

4. Take the document to the US State Department where they authenticate the DC government's authentication.
U.S. Department of State
Authentications Office
518 23rd Street, NW - SA-1
Columbia Plaza
Washington, DC 20520

5. Take the document to the Chinese Embassy to 认证 the US State Department's authentication.

When I did my first set of documents in August, I was able to do all 5 steps on the same day by early afternoon. It was a lot easier than I thought. But the State Department changed their walk-in policy in September which makes it tricky to get everything done in one day. Also when I worked on my second sets of documents, I used the US State Department's mail-in service, and it took a month for me to get my documents back, not 10 days as they stated on their website.

The Consulate Office in China Embassy may not want to notarize US documents, you need to call the office to find out.

In order to get an official public notary of US document for use in China, you will need to do the following:

1) Notarize your document by a public notary as usual
2) Send the notarized document to the secretary office of your state, such as the secretary of Virginia, for authentication
3) Send the state authenticated document to the Department of State in Washington for authentication
4) Send the US authenticated document to Consulate Office in China Embassy for authentication

So it will take a long time to do so.

For those US citizens, you need to get your documents to Chinese Embassy for "认证 (authenticated)", rather than “公证”。The process looks like this:

1. Get your docs notarized with any notary public;
2. Authenticate documents in the state where your docs are notarized. i.e.: in VA, go to http://www.commonwealth.virginia.gov/authentications
3. Authenticate your docs with State Dept.: http://www.state.gov/authentications/
4. Take the authenticated docs to Chinese Embassy to get final "认证".

Good luck

I have used this same company multiple times, and the notary documents work fine in Beijing. They charge $85 per copy, so if you need multiple copies (for the same notary document) you have to pay more. Overall I think their service is pretty good, and saved me a lot of time.

前些时候做国内委托公证书，中文的公证书送到state of department去认证时，被电话通知取时需要送上一份英译本。自己按原件翻译一文本，再拿去notary那签字公证后递上去的，OK。

注意：去大使馆时，记住要复印每一张文本（我从state of departmen取后直接去大使馆认证，排队到窗口被告知需要复印所有文件送上，包括护照。走了10分钟找到UPS 店）

我是自己起草了一份中英文委托书（具体文本格式需要国内认可），然后拿给agent（绿洲）去做。他们公司就在使馆的三楼复印处，收不少费用。但是他们公司地处DC，在三级认证中比VA可以少跑一个部门，所以省时间，还可以帮你直接寄回国。

公证员不负责翻译。如果你找他们最好先打个电话问清楚要带的材料。另外门口停车要看清楚，有的meters 只可以停货车。

我的做法是，我自己翻译，在译文最后加一句：本人保证，中英文内容一致，然后去做三级公证。

前文所说的“委托书”，可以直接在大使馆网站下载，那个是“委托书”的标准版本。

若你的名字和你原中国护照相同：

1. 写好中英文的放弃申明，去银行公证
2. 把银行公证过的放弃申明送所在州公证
3. 把银行公证过的且在州公证过的放弃申明送国务院公证
4. 把银行公证过的且在州公证过而且在国务院公证过的的放弃申明送大使馆认证。

若你的名字和你原中国护照不相同：

1. 写好中英文的放弃申明，去银行公证
2. 把银行公证过的放弃申明送所在州公证
3. 把银行公证过的且在州公证过的放弃申明送国务院公证
4. 把银行公证过的且在州公证过而且在国务院公证过的的放弃申明送大使馆认证。

5. 从改名的法庭出具改名公证书

7. 去国务院公证司法部公证过的法庭出具的改名公证书
8. 去大使馆认证国务院公证过的，司法部公证过的，法庭出具的改名公证书

至此，寄送大使馆认证过的所有国务院，司法部，州及银行公证过的文件原件给收件人。

国务院的认证办公室（Office of Authentications）：

Address: 600 19th St NW, Washington, DC 20006
Phone:(202) 485-8000
Hours: Open today · 8AM–3:30PM

记住，他们办认证的drop off & pick up时间只有8:00am-9:00am，仅一个小时的时间。

你要办好美国国务院认证后，才可以去大使馆办认证。
因为中国大使馆只与美国国务院对口。

这里，我已经附上美国国务院的认证申请表，和中国大使馆的认证申请表，你可以看看。

这几级的公证/认证是必须的：
1，当地公证员公证（notarization）
2，州政府认证（Authenticate）
3，国务院认证
4，大使馆认证（大使馆不办外国公民的公证，只办认证）

因为：
1，中国国内只承认中国大使馆的认证，
2，而中国大使馆只认美国国务院的认证，
3，美国国务院只认州政府认证

就是这么个逻辑关系。或者说，是行政对口关系。
一个一个都得办妥。这样，美国的合法文件才能转变成为在中国使用的合法文件。
