Does the signature and seal of the foreign plaintiff in the complaint need to be notarized and authenticated?

By Ningbo Intermediate Court

 Judiciary answers to 14 Difficult Questionsabout Foreign-related Commercial Trials By Ningbo Intermediate People's Court, Zhejiang Province, PRC 

 

Answer: If a foreign plaintiff submits acomplaint to the court of our country, and the litigation act of signing and sealing on the complaint occurs outside the territory of our country, the plaintiff should go through the notarization and authentication procedures issued by the plaintiff. However, the court can determine that the complaint is issued by the original plaintiff according to other circumstances, and may not require the plaintiff to go through the corresponding notarization and authentication procedures. If the plaintiff entrusts a lawyer from China to participate in the litigation, the scope of authorization for the lawyer includes initiating the litigation on behalf of the lawyer, and the lawyer has gone through the notarization and authentication procedures for the power of attorney, the lawyer can initiate the litigation on behalf of the lawyer, and has the right to sign the lawyer's name in the lawsuit, and the court does not need to ask the plaintiff to submit the notarization and authentication procedures for the lawsuit issued by himself.
