中国加入取消外国公文书认证要求的公约的英语通告China's Accession to the Convention on Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents - English AnnouncementThe Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People's Republic of China is pleased to announce that China has officially joined the Convention on Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents, also known as the Apostille Convention.Effective from the date of this announcement, the requirement for the legalization of foreign public documents, such as birth certificates, marriage certificates, academic degrees, and others, is abolished for use within the territories of both China and the countries party to the Apostille Convention.The Apostille Convention simplifies the process of authenticating public documents for cross-border use. Under this Convention, the legal validity of public documents issued by one member country will be recognized automatically by other member countries, without the need for any further certification.This move by China aims to enhance the efficiency and convenience of cross-border transactions and interactions, promote international cooperation, and facilitate the flow of trade, investment, education, and cultural exchanges.With this change, individuals and organizations holding Chinese public documents or foreign public documents intended for use inChina can now simply obtain an apostille, a special certificate, from the competent authority designated by the issuing country, instead of undergoing numerous authentication procedures.Nonetheless, it is important to note that the Apostille Convention only applies to public documents and does not cover commercial documents or documents issued by diplomatic or consular officials.China's accession to the Apostille Convention signifies the country's commitment to international legal standards and its desire to foster a more open and accessible environment for international exchanges.The Ministry of Foreign Affairs encourages all relevant authorities, organizations, and individuals to familiarize themselves with the provisions of the Apostille Convention and adhere to its requirements, ensuring a smooth transition and implementation of this important international agreement.For more information and guidance on the application and use of apostilles in China, please visit the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' official website or contact the nearest Chinese diplomatic mission. Thank you for your attention.Ministry of Foreign AffairsPeople's Republic of China。

2001年中国加入世界贸易组织大事记中国是1947年成立的关税及贸易总协定(General Agreement on Tariffs And Trade，以下简称GA TT)创始国之一。

新中国成立后，台湾当局非法窃据中国席位。

1984年11月，中国获得了GA TT观察员地位。

1986年7月，中国正式提出恢复GA TT缔约国地位的申请。

1986年9月，中国开始全面参与了GA TT乌拉圭回合多边贸易谈判。

1987年3月，GA TT成立中国工作组，并于同年10月举行了工作组第一次会议。

1992年10月第十一次会议时，中国工作组基本结束了对中国经贸体制的审议，进入有关中国复关议定书内容的实质性谈判。

1994年4月中国签署了《乌拉圭回合多边贸易谈判的最后文件》和《建立世界贸易组织的马拉喀什协议》。

签署这两个文件是中国复关的必备条件之一。

1995年1月1日，世界贸易组织(World Trade Organization，简称WTO)正式成立。

同年7月11日，中国成为该组织观察员。

11月，中国政府照会世贸组织总干事鲁杰罗，把中国复关工作组更名为中国“入世”工作组。

1997年5月23日，在日内瓦举行的第四次世界贸易组织中国工作组会议就中国加入世贸组织议定书中关于非歧视原则和司法审议两项主要条款达成协议。

同年8月，新西兰成为第一个就中国加入世贸组织同中国达成双边协议的国家。

同年，中国还与韩国、匈牙利、捷克等国签署了入世双边协议。

同年11月，中日两国关于中国“入世”的双边市场准入谈判宣告基本结束。

1998年4月7日，中国在第七次世界贸易组织中国工作组会议上提出了一揽子降低关税的方案。

1998年6月，国家主席江泽民提出了中国“入世”三原则：世贸组织没有中国的参加是不完整的;中国毫无疑问要作为发展中国家加入世贸组织;中国的“入世”是以权利和义务的平衡为原则的。

此前，中国已先后4次大幅度降低关税，并已签署了世贸组织的《信息技术协议》。
