as i understand the requirements for marrying a chinese lady in china are:
1 a single status certificate. i think us embassy in shanghai can issue such certificate for $30
2 a death certificate/divorce certificate and a translation
does this certificate need to be authenticated by chinese embassy in usa? can somebody confirm or negate it?
3 a translation of above cerificate by a burrow office in china
can anybody confirm

The rules about marriage eligibility as far as i know from my research in Australia require that you provide a "Single Certificate"...obtainable from your loical register of Births and Deaths and marriage. Then you must get this certificate authenticated by your Foreign Affairs department to prove it is Genuine. Then you must get this authenticated and translated by a local Chinese Consulate/Embassy.
This document then becomes the only one needed for a marriage in China.
I have done all this myself and to my knowlege it meets the requirements of any Chinese wedding process

Hi! I'm in Nanning right now and am getting married next week. I had both my visa and divorce papers taken care of in the states by VisaRite services. Go to visarite.com. They are the most professional and helpful service I have found. Everything was done exactly on time as promised and they handled all my questions quickly and thoroughly. I just had the papers translated into Chinese, here in Nanning for around $40.00. Everyone in China is very friendly and helpful.

hi, my name is (a.cecil sesay)..ID cm 560537) as you can see and read my profile,i'm falling in love a bit by bit with one of my admirer,..i am an AFRICAN WHO'VE BEEN LEAVING IN EUROPE FOR ALMOST FOUR AND HALF DECADE, I HAVE KNOW PROBLEM WITH EUROPEAN AUTHORITIES OR EC DOCUMENT, i have my ec passport which claim me as an european, so it no problem for me geting flight ticket to china or what ever,..the only problem..is that! i have freinds in both black and white and we leave in spain ! but this freinds cant aford to come over with me in china for wedding economicaly.it not realy a question of going tru the chines wedding cerimony..but some how, i'll need my own people,...so...the question is,..if i produce all the nessery requament ! will there be a way to go true the wedding..in official way like true judiciary..without going the chines native way? or is it an obligation..that you must go true the chines way only before your bride will be hand over to you? i've separated for almost six years. the reason for this is just language barria, i would have been intred to know my fiance..with no third party, but i have no choice in this case with out CHNLOVE,..seen my favourite and she see..me, is not the problem..but live is more better than mail,.so if happen to fall in china, i must be going to china two or three times a year...i will realy like to see the person i'm exchanging sweet mail with, wether she will like me or i'll like her. its not a matter of beauty woman for me choosing china for a wife,but for real family life with a soul mate freind, not only a wife. most probably, i will visite china in december to know if i can 100% have a chines wife or not. my scard, is..the ladies look so amazing on pictures...but when i went tru some video clips, there phisical presentations were below my expectation. so for this reason i need to come over china most probably in december2008 before mailing for something i myth not like or something that myth not like me. this is only a personal oppinion with all due respet for chines culture. the girl that is steeling my heart, look so beautifull that i cant belive... there video clips!!!!so this is why i want to face reality. i'm in communication with her, she tells me she's learning english, and i've got to know tru her last mail that she dont even speak english ! and i'm not leaving for the moment in england but in spain.this is only because of the nature of my present proffetion as a musician, so if my bride is here, she need to learn spanish, at least..i will like her to do a standard job...for the moment , i have good contacts in the fild of tourism or other standerd jobs for basic worker...but its realy important for her to know english...spanish...i will pay spanish classes for lesson for her,..this is just a coment..who knows..if i will end up to leave in china!!..but i always think ahead to slove problems before the come if i can. i will be greatfull if you understand what i'm saying exactlly. thanks for your attention...CECIL

Well Guys from what I learn about the K-1 Visa, 1st don't get married in China before you bring her to the USA.it will hold things up or they could turn her Visa down.So follow the rules. You need to prove you met her,Best bet is a photo of you two.You will need help with the Visa. These folks have people in China to help her & you.call 877-354-7463 or www.fiancee-visa.net/countries-china.htm . Tell them I sent you.This company will make sure everything for you goes well.I wish everyone the best of luck.

I need some solid advise guys, planning a trip to Chung Chun, northeast of Beijing this coming June or July. I plan to register for a marriage certificate and apply for a fiance visa while I am there. The wedding will be held with her family after the Fiance visa is issued 6 to 10 months down the road. Is this a good plan or is there a better way? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Northern Chinese women Rocks. :)

K-1 Visas are Worthless, unless you pay an immigration attorney:
I was engaged to be married to a lady from Russia, for more than 1.5 years before my fiancee "gave up the ghost" and moved on with her life. I personally applied for a K-1 Fiance Visa on her behalf, completing the needed documents myself. I used an internet based "FIANCE VISA PACKAGE" that I paid $85 bucks for, which included all of the necesary forms and advice from professional immigration attorneys. I never received a decision for my Fiance Visa Appliocation (I-129). All the USCIS ever told me was, "Your case is under review. You should receive a decision or notice of other action within 60 days of the date of this letter."
After hundreds of phone calls to the USCIS center in D.C., I gave up. The immigration attorneys all wanted about $2,000 to do the same K-1 Fiance Visa work that I did myself.
Now, I am serious about a wonderful girl from China. If things go well, I will fly to China and marry her there - then bring her back as my wife. I will pay an immigration attorney this time, but I still don't think much of the K-1 baloney. To me, a woman is more serious if she will marry you..............
