Why Is a Federal Apostille Needed for a Federal Marriage Certificate Going to China?
Chinese government agencies, courts, immigration authorities, and other institutions require that foreign documents be properly authenticated before they can be accepted as valid. A Federal Marriage Certificate issued in the United States has no inherent legal standing in China until it has been authenticated through the appropriate international channels. Since China is not a Hague Convention member, embassy legalization is required.
