[问题] Bring kid back to China

[abc123]

Sorry cannot type Chinese in office.

I try to bring kid back to Beijing for a relatively long period (years),
and need a birth nortarization/certification from Chinese embassy
here.

I just called the embassy, and was told the birth certification
need to be nortarized/certificated by Ministry of Foreign Affairs
of Canada before sent to Chinese embassy. The officer said he doesn't
know how to get the Canadian nort/cert, but "a lot of Chinese here"
know how to do it.

Does anyone know? Thanks a lot.

1，小孩是加拿大出生的，持加拿大护照。
2，小孩随父母海归，须中国签证。
3，父母持中国护照，无须中国签证。

最近刚问的北京出入境管理局，需中国驻加使馆公证小孩的加拿大出生证
（否则办探亲要半年一签，还有其他的麻烦事）。问中国使馆，他们要加
拿大外交部出具的证明。听起来好像挺复杂，这事办过的人就知道，象我
这样没办过的人就不知道。

请办过的人讲讲。谢谢！

请问你办好这个手续后小孩可以在国内一次呆多久？

我教你:

1. 把孩子的出生证, 长长的那一张, 上面有父母名字签字的, 做一份复印件, 找律师做公证, 证明是原件的真实复印件. 律师是收费的;

2. 拿这个公证过的复印件到外交部做认证, 你如果在渥太华的话, 就是 Sussex Drive上那栋巧克力大楼, 地址我不知道, 从 Sussex Drive往东开, 在模样怪怪的老 City Hall以西的那个楼就是. 进门有 information 柜台, 你就跟他们说要 Certify documents, 他就会给你登记一下让你等着, 然后到你的时候再让你到哪个房间去. 以前在楼上, 警卫要亲自带你进去, 现在好像在一楼了, 他会告诉你怎么走, 当时就可以办完拿回来, 免费的.

3. 有了外交部的官员在文件上的签字盖章(一般在背面), 你再拿到大使馆去办认证. 要当时填表, 都搞好以后交进去, 一周就好了.

提醒:

1. 使馆要收费的, 可能是30, 记不清了. 要现金, 不收信用卡, 而且必须是正好的钱.

2. 最好你要带上孩子护照的复印件和大人护照的复印件, 可能要交, 而且当时没有地方可以去复印.

3. 填表要笔, 记着自己带. 保险的话, 把曲别针和订书机也随手带去, 使馆的签证处那层大玻璃里边的文具他们不会推到外边借给你用的. 但是到时候他们让你订好, 你就为难了.

Thanks a lot KaiXi! It's very clear, I shall put it into my own JinHua
collection.

One more question, I only have the original birth certificate (small
one), and don't have the longer one you mentioned (certified copy) on
hand. Could that be a problem?

To mossback:
It depends on what kind of visa you'll apply, but normally
one year. It used to be two years if you apply to have grand-parent
take care of your kid(s), but it becomes one year effective 2005/1/1.
Hope this helpful.

多谢！那一年以后怎么办？是要重新回加拿大公证，还是直接到当地出入境部门办理下一年的延期？

long form of birth certificate: you need to apply for this at the same place you get the wallet size one(short form). you need pay extra $75(or $70?). urgent service is available without extra charge.
in fact I think it's even easier to extend visa in china for every 6 months.

But, one can only extend (6mo) visa up to twice. After that, s/he
must leave China and apply again from outside. This is OK if living
in somewhere close to HK, like Shenzhen, but it's very incovenient
for one lives in BJ.

你是说可以去香港，在哪申请中国签证，就又可以进中国了？

I went thru these a few years ago, as far as I know the Chinese embassy is usually pretty generous for this kind of situation: ur best bet is to apply for "fostering 寄养" and with this, you can have a valid stay permit in China for up to 2-3 years (don't remmebmer exactly what it was then) and thereafter, you can apply for extension from within China.

I wasn't asked to provide a notorised copy of birth certificate: just a birth certificate to prove his/her relationship to you as parents, a passport and then the fees. Chinese staff there were very friendly.

One important reminder: never let your visa expire, apply for extension way ahead of expiry date so as to allow for the necessary processing time [especially if you are in Bj ] or you will be facing very severe consequencess like hefty fines, Chinese police department is very serious about it, not one day beyond the validity or you will run into big troubles exiting China.

good luck

Just consult weeks ago, and here are some updates:
1, "fostering 寄养" is now only for ONE year.
2, The fine for visa expiration is RMB 500 per day.
