Complaints Procedure

China will soon require only Apostille

China has acceded to the Hauge Convention treaty of 5^th October 1961 on 8^th March 2023 which should take full effect from 7^th November 2023.

Until 7^th November the current requirements for China will remain in effect:

Notarisation of documents by a Notary + Apostille from the Foreign and Commonwealth Office + Attestation from the Chinese Embassy.

The Chinese Embassy currently provides two attestation services:

• Approximately £64 for standard service per document (4 working days)
• Approximately £95 for express service per document (3 working days)

From 7^th November 2023 the Chinese Embassy Attestation should no longer be required, thus the only requirements should be to have documents notarised and Apostilled by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office.
