Professional, all-inclusive consular legalization service in Hong Kong

After successfully opening a company in Hong Kong (China), many businesses may consider further investments in Vietnam or other countries, such as setting up subsidiaries, additional branches, or representative offices. 

For this international investment process, the receiving countries will typically require the investor to undergo a "consulate legalization" of the relevant company documents from Hong Kong (China) based on the specific purpose.

The article aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the process, facilitating smoother international investments for readers.

You will gain valuable insights into the process of document legalization and the specific procedures and timelines involved in obtaining Consulate Hong Kong (China) papers.

1. What is the Consular legalization of Hong Kong (China) documents?

The terms "consular legalization" and "consular authentication" are gaining popularity as the demand for international business and living abroad increases. These two concepts are distinct as follows:

1.1. Consular authentication

A competent Vietnamese agency certifies seals, signatures, and titles on foreign papers and documents so that such papers and documents can be recognized and usable in Vietnam.

1.2. Consular certification

A competent Vietnamese agency certifies the seal, signature, and title on Vietnamese papers and documents so that such papers and documents can be recognized and used abroad.

Please note that Consular certification and legalization pertain only to certifying seals, signatures, and titles on documents and do not encompass content and form certification.

After setting up a company in Hong Kong (China), businesses encounter various consular legalization needs to fulfill different operational purposes, such as:

• Open a foreign bank account in Singapore, Hong Kong (China), Vietnam, etc.
• Set up branches in foreign countries (Singapore, USA, Vietnam, BVI, etc.)
• Present legal documents to the parent company in Vietnam, etc.

Given the multitude of documents that need authentication for use in Vietnam and other countries worldwide, selecting a reliable, long-term partner, like Global Link Asia Consulting, familiar with your business needs and capable of promptly handling all necessary document legalizations is crucial.
