American citizens should apply for notarization through a local Notary Public. Documents notarized by a Notary Public can not be directly used in China before they are: 1)authenticated by the Secretary of State (Financial Secretary in New Jersey) first. In the States of New York, Ohio and New Jersey, documents may be required to be authenticated by a County Clerk (Please consult with your Notary Public or the office of the Secretary of State), and 2)authenticated by the Consulate General of China. After these steps, documents can be used in China.
