The documents intended to be used in China by foreign citizens (including overseas Chinese) cannot be directly sent to the Chinese Embassy in Malaysia for notarization. The documents should be notarized first by a notary public in Malaysia and then submitted to the Chinese Embassy in Malaysia for authentication after being legalized by Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Malaysia.
     The documents issued in another country should be authenticated there. The Chinese Embassy in Malaysia does not accept the documents issued in another country for legalization. If a citizen of a third country living in Malaysia applies for passport authentication, his/her application can be accepted by the Chinese Embassy in Malaysia if it has been notarized by the country's embassy in Malaysia.
