How to handle the notarization and certification of the certificate of no crime in the United States?
In the United States, there are mainly two departments that issue no criminal record:

1. The police station of the original residence, the office of county sheriff, or the state police and legal department;

2. FBI.

the former is to search the databases of local cities, counties and states, while the latter is to search the databases of the FBI (only those who commit federal crimes will be recorded).

What kind of certificate of no criminal record needs to be issued depends on your own situation. If you are applying for a job, working, etc., you can issue it to the local police station. However, if you are involved in immigration or studying in a third country, you need to issue an FBI certificate of no criminal record.

No criminal record of the local police station or county sheriff's office:

Contact the local police station or county sheriff's office by phone and ask them to search the local and state databases and issue a criminal record check for you. Tell them that the final document will be taken to China for use.

Note: Some states have unified state management and have no criminal record, which needs to be handled by relevant departments at the state level, such as Florida and Virginia.

No criminal record issued by FBI:

No criminal record issued by FBI needs to be obtained from FBI. Its authentication procedure is the the State Council, and then it goes directly to the Embassy of China.
