What do I need to have a death certificate authenticated by the Chinese Consulate or Chinese Embassy?

Please check information from the Chinese Consulate or Chinese Embassy that has jurisdiction over your residential area or state as each Consulate may have different requirements.

How to prepare Chinese Consulate authentication for death certificate?

1.) Fill out Consulate Legalization Application Form (G1 form) on your computer. The form must be typed in capitalized letters, printed out and signed in both places in Section 8.

• Generally, the applicant’s information in Section 1 needs to be filled out with information of the deceased. The immediate family member applying for authentication will fill in their own information in Section 7 (Agent). Family member must sign on both lines in Section 8.
• For Chinese Consulate in NY, two separate forms are required. One using information of the deceased and the other using immediate family member.

2.) Prepare your supporting documents. Each document authentication needs their own photocopy of supporting documents.

• Passport photocopies of deceased family member and immediate family member on the application form.
• Proof of kinship (marriage certificate, birth certificate, etc.)
• Power of Attorney authorizing our agent to submit the application on your behalf. Please email us if you are unsure if this is required for the Chinese Consulate you are applying through.

Important: Passport photocopies must include top and bottom pages.
