China travel document requirements may differ depending on the baby’s nationality situation and the parents’ status. The Chinese Embassy in Mexico provides guidance for newborns born in Mexico with potential nationality conflict through the “China Consular” app.

Before starting the China travel document application, prepare the core Mexico-side documents:

• Mexican birth certificate (Acta de nacimiento)
• Post-birth court order / judicial decision (commonly required in surrogacy cases to support parentage and documentation structure)

Parents’ IDs/passports and supporting case documents (as applicable)

Mexico documents are issued in Spanish. If the Chinese Embassy/Consulate requests it, you may need:

• Certified translation (Spanish → Chinese/English, depending on instructions)
• Notarization / Apostille (only if the consular officer requires it for your case)

Tip: Always confirm which documents must be apostilled before you start—this avoids rework and delays. (Requirements can vary by case.)

Common items typically include (final list per consular instructions):

• Parents’ passports/IDs
• Baby’s passport-style photo (white background)
• Baby’s birth certificate
• Nationality status declaration / related statements (templates are available on the Embassy website)

Application forms required by the Embassy/Consulate

For a newborn in Mexico, the Embassy FAQ instructs applicants to submit via the app;

Then complete the form, sign the nationality statement in-app, and upload materials.

For minors, the Embassy guidance generally requires both parents/legal guardians to attend (or provide proper authorization if one cannot attend).

After review and approval, you will receive instructions for:

• Payment (if applicable)
• Pickup or delivery (depending on the local procedure)
