Can I Submit the Request for Judicial Assistance Online?-Service of Process and Hague Service Convention Series (8)

Yes. In order to facilitate judicial assistance in international civil and commercial matters, China’s Ministry of Justice launched an online Civil and Commercial Judicial Assistance System in 2019 at www.ilcc.online.

Foreign requesters can now directly submit request materials online. Once the request is accepted, the requesting party does not need to post paper materials.
