Apostille in Shanghai
Public documents issued in Shanghai can be apostilled by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or an authorised local foreign affairs office. We handle the full process for clients in Shanghai.
An apostille certifies the signature and seal on a public document. For public documents issued in China and used in a member country, the apostille is issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or an authorised local foreign affairs office, and the destination accepts it directly.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to be in Shanghai in person for apostille?
Usually not. Documents can be couriered or uploaded. If a step needs you in person, such as some notarisations, we tell you in advance and book it.
How much does apostille cost in Shanghai?
It depends on document type, quantity, language, destination and deadline, so each job is quoted individually. Send a photo of the document for a free, exact quote.
Can I use an apostille for my destination country?
It depends on whether the country is a member and whether the convention applies between it and China. Check our country pages or ask us; we confirm case by case.
Do I still need the embassy after an apostille?
No. The apostille replaces consular legalization, which is the main benefit of the convention.
