Q:Is it necessary to have the documents legalized if they will be sent to and used in China?
A:Consular legalization is international practice gradually forming around the world in diplomatic and consular practice in order to facilitate mutual correspondence. At present, China has not yet signed bilateral treaties or agreements of mutual exemption of consular legalization with any country, but there is an "exemption from certification" clause in the Chinese and foreign bilateral judicial assistance treaty and agreement. In addition, all foreign documents for civil and commercial use in China generally need consular legalization.
