Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about serving legal documents in China and China-US legal matters.

Ask Us Your Question →
What is the Hague Service Convention?
The Hague Convention on the Service Abroad of Judicial and Extrajudicial Documents (1965) is an international treaty governing cross-border service of process. China acceded in 1992. All legal documents must be transmitted through China's Ministry of Justice as the designated Central Authority.
How long does service of process in China take?
Standard channels: 6–18 months. Through our direct ILCC account, we submit electronically, actively monitor status, and follow up with the Ministry — significantly reducing typical delays. We keep you updated throughout.
Can I just use FedEx to serve a Chinese defendant?
No. China has specifically objected to Article 10 of the Hague Convention, which would permit postal service. FedEx, UPS, or direct mail service on Chinese defendants is legally invalid and will be rejected by US courts. You must use official Hague Convention channels.
What documents are needed?
Typically: the summons and complaint, completed USM-94 form, certified Chinese translations of all documents, and a Summary of Documents form. Our office prepares everything — you simply provide the original documents.
How much does it cost?
Fees depend on document volume, translation needs, and timeline. We offer a $99 initial consultation where we review your case and provide a transparent fixed-fee quote. No surprise billing.
