Finding notary office information in Shanghai

Shanghai's official English portal publishes a directory of notary public offices, with names and public contact information. The page identifies the Shanghai Municipal Bureau of Justice as its source and notes an update in June 2026. Use the official directory to find an office and make enquiries about your document. Inclusion in the directory does not determine whether your particular document can be notarised, which supporting materials are required, the fee, or whether a document will be recognised abroad. Those questions require confirmation for the specific matter.
