Yes, it needs to be translated. Go to the local provincial "notarial" office. It will be the same place you obtain notarial birth certificate and divorce decree, if applicable.

It is an requirement must that the Chinese applicant provide translated notarial certificates together with the translator's certification that the translation conforms to the original Chinese copy. Also be aware that some notarial documents have a one year shelf life (police clearances and single certificates). Ask you SO which Chinese notary office will perform this task , they usually provide the translations also and notary services. The authority for the notarial documents comes from GUZ's website:

If you do the translation in the states, look for a translator on the internet. Send her/him .jpg images of the certicifate. Request a something in writing that the translator is certified to do this stuff. I got it done in under ten days for $30. Send INS copies of the originals (Chinese) and the English translations. Had no problems.
