Frequently Asked Questions: Notarization and Apostille Acquisition for a Pre-revision Family Register for China

Besides the original Pre-revision Family Register, are any other documents required?
Unless the receiving authority requires something such as the person's signature on a declaration (声明书 / Declaration), no other document is required; simply send us the original Pre-revision Family Register. A copy of the passport may be required if the Chinese and Japanese names differ.
Do I need to go to the notary public office myself?
If you engage our office, you do not need to go to the notary public office. An administrative scrivener will visit the office to obtain the apostille on your behalf.
* If notarization and apostille acquisition are required for a copy of a Japanese passport, you still do not need to visit the notary public office if you mail us the original passport. The original passport must be presented at the counter in order to process an apostille for a passport copy.
Can an apostille be obtained for a copy rather than the original Pre-revision Family Register?
A copy can be included in a notarized declaration package, for which an apostille may be obtained through a notary office. This is different from an apostille issued directly on the original public certificate. Please confirm that the receiving authority accepts this form; we recommend also providing the original family register certificate.

Important Notes: Notarization and Apostille Acquisition for a Pre-revision Family Register for China

If you have been naturalized in Japan and have both a Japanese name and a Chinese name, you may need to prove that they refer to the same person.
In that case, attaching a Simplified Chinese translation of the Japanese Pre-revision Family Register and a copy of the Japanese passport, and declaring that they refer to the same person, may enable the document to be used as valid documentation in China.
