Chinese kinship and death certificates
The Research Triangle's Chinese community means North Carolina estates regularly involve relatives and property in China. Chinese inheritance paperwork relies on notarial certificates from Chinese notary offices: a notarial certificate of death, and a notarial certificate of kinship setting out how each heir is related to the deceased.
For a North Carolina estate, those certificates are translated in full, with the notary office, certificate numbers and every name exactly as printed. Since China joined the Apostille Convention in 2023, they may also carry an apostille, which is translated too.
