Taiwanese household records in an inheritance
For Seattle's Taiwanese families, an estate in Taiwan starts with the household registration system. A death is recorded by removing the person from the household register, and heirs prove their relationship to the deceased with household registration transcripts, including the record of removal. Those transcripts are translated in full, with Republic of China calendar dates converted and names in each heir's passport spelling.
Going the other way, a Washington death certificate for use in Taiwan is not apostilled, because Taiwan is outside the Apostille Convention; it is authenticated by a Taipei Economic and Cultural Office instead.
