Are Chinese certificates real, how do I check one?

Certificates you can buy. A lot of factories buy them. So the paper alone means nothing. You have to check where they got the certificate, who issued it, and dig into it properly. Do not trust the PDF, trust the source behind it.

If this is where you are right now, Factory Verification — I go look myself is the deeper version of this same check.
