do english language marriage documents (notarised) need to be translated into chinese?

Question

A Chinese citizen relative - by marriage - wants to invite me - a Dutch citizen, permanent resident of Australia to visit him in Shanghai for two weeks in March next year. I note that his invitation letter needs to be supplied hand written both in English and Chinese. It seems that supporting documents will include two Australian marriage certificates, copies of which will be properly  notarized, showing my marriage to my Chinese wife, now permanent resident of Australia, and showing her daughter, although now an Australian citizen, married to the above invitee resident in Shanghai. Do these Australian marriage certificates have to be translated into Chinese?

Hello, Hans, according to what you stated above, you can just apply for a tourist L type. In this way, the marriage certificate is not needed, not mention to translate it. You just need to provide an invitation letter from the invitee.  Or, the residence permit of the invitee will be needed, too.
