Chinese-American immigrants in Chengdu

This kind of foreign-related legal affairs is not familiar to everyone. I have here a Handbook of Foreign Civil Affairs compiled by the Civil Division of the Supreme Court 1992: The Situation and Requirements for Accreditation of Some National Embassies.

Country name: USA

Purpose of application and notarized contents: 1, marriage, childbirth, proof of relatives.

Do you need to apply for notarization? You need an office card.

Do you need consular certification? Certification is required.

Do you need embassy certification in China? Certification is required.

Remarks: All notarial certificates sent to the United States must be certified by the Consular Department and the American Embassy in China; Any notarial certificate used to apply for a visa to the US Embassy in China does not need authentication. States in the United States have different requirements for refusing a certificate, and the notary office can handle it according to the needs or specific circumstances of the applicant. When applying for certification, the purpose should be stated. Attached is an English translation.

According to this information, the marriage certificate should be certified by the office card, followed by the consular department and finally the US Embassy in China.

Is there any change in the effective procedure of this 1992? I have never handled this kind of case. I'm not sure. It's also the topic of discussion here. I'm sorry. Of course, China's marriage certificate was notarized in China and then certified by the American Embassy in China. It will definitely prove that she is the wife of an American husband in the United States.

Let's quote the Notice of the Notary Lawyers Department of the Ministry of Justice on Forwarding Some Opinions of the Consular Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Improving Notary Certification (1984. 8 16[84] No. 152).

5 1. USA

Anyone who applies to settle in the United States must provide the US with a certificate of birth (including the date and place of birth, parents' names, adopted children's relationship, etc.). ) and marriage certificate (or divorce certificate and spouse's death certificate) in triplicate. These two notarial certificates can be combined into one book, which requires English translation and no authentication. One copy is sent by the applicant's relatives in the United States to the US Immigration Bureau, and the other copy is sent to the US Embassy in China when the applicant applies for an entry visa to the United States.

Settlers in the United States can apply for "proof of kinship" if requested by the applicant.

People visiting relatives in the United States generally do not need to apply for any documents.

Every state in the United States has different requirements for academic certificates (including academic record forms) used to apply for studying in the United States, and there is no uniform regulation. Notary offices around the country can handle it according to the requirements of the applicant.

Notarial certificates such as adoption of children and inheritance of property need to be certified by the Consular Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China and the US Embassy in China.

The notarial certificate sent to the United States must be accompanied by an English translation.

Notarial certificates sent to El Salvador and Paraguay can be certified by the US Embassy in China.
