Reporting Birth Abroad

The American parents of a child born in China should report the birth to the Consulate General. The Consulate General will issue a Consular Report of Birth Abroad (Form FS-240), and a U.S. passport, which will be needed for the child to depart China. The Report of Birth Abroad may be used as a birth certificate for school, work, or other purposes.

When you apply for a Consular Report of Birth Abroad, you will also be able to apply for a Social Security number at the same time. The number will be mailed to you approximately four months after registration.

Original documents must be presented with the application. An affidavit acknowledging at least one parent meets the physical presence in the United States requirement for transmitting citizenship to the child must be filled out as part of the application. All original documents will be reviewed by a consular officer and returned to the applicant. Please bring the following:

An original of the child's Chinese birth certificate along with an English translation (This translation does not need to be notarized)
Applicant's parents' passports, or other proof of their citizenship and identity

If you buy your kid from there like so many people are doing now, you can get the documentation for your merchandise in English. If you're trying to recover a birth certificate from the past, good luck, try calling a consulate and asking someone there for the best way to pursue it.

Does your country provide a birth certificate in Chinese. Unless you lived in China, Singapore, Taiwan or Hong Kong, I would say 'NO'. Of course not. I don't know the system in your country, or even know, course, where you're from, but if it is not one of the above, in a general way you have to get it translated and notarised before it is a truly legal document,.

Any documents you get in Chinese can be translated and certified into English by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. I recently had to translate my wife's birth certificate & other documents. I believe she told me the cost was like RMB10 per document.

With that document and official state stamp, you can register your kid with your consulate.
