If you are planning to use Indian documents in China, apostille is NOT valid. China is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, which means Indian documents must go through complete legalization and embassy attestation to be accepted by Chinese authorities.

For China, document authentication is a multi-layer process. Simply getting MEA attestation is not enough. Documents must be verified at the state level, attested by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), Government of India, and finally legalized by the Chinese Embassy or Consulate.

Chinese authorities are very strict about document verification. Any missing step, incorrect seal, or mismatch in name can result in outright rejection. This makes professional handling extremely important for China-related documentation.

Indian citizens usually require China attestation for purposes such as higher education, employment, work visas (Z Visa), business setup, company registration, import-export activities, residency permits, marriage registration, and legal or commercial matters. Companies often require attestation for commercial invoices, power of attorney, agreements, and incorporation documents for use in China.

Documents commonly attested for China include educational certificates (degree, diploma, mark sheets), personal documents (birth certificate, marriage certificate, police clearance certificate, affidavits), and commercial documents (power of attorney, board resolutions, business contracts, incorporation papers).

Unlike Hague countries, China also often requires document translation into Chinese depending on the authority and usage. This translation usually needs to be done after attestation and sometimes must be notarized.
