The lawyer qualification certificate and the judicial certificate are both certificates obtained through relevant judicial examinations, but they are different in terms of practice and certificate types. Their differences are:

1. Practice type. A lawyer's qualification certificate is a qualification certificate for the legal profession and a license to apply for a lawyer's practice; while a judicial certificate means that a person who obtains this certificate can serve as a practicing lawyer, judge, prosecutor, and notary public in accordance with the law.

2. Document type. A lawyer's qualification certificate is a qualification certificate for practicing in the lawyer industry; a judicial certificate is a certificate for engaging in judicial work, including lawyers. To obtain a lawyer's license, you must pass the judicial examination and obtain a legal practitioner qualification certificate.

3. The requirements for holding certificates are different. Obtaining a lawyer's practicing certificate requires the applicant to not only have the knowledge required to obtain a lawyer's qualification, but also have the ability to actually perform legal business. The judicial certificate only requires passing the national judicial examination.

4. The issuing units are different. A lawyer's practicing certificate shall be issued by the provincial judicial administrative agency after the applicant's qualifications and other essential requirements are reviewed and passed through legal procedures. The judicial certificate is uniformly produced and issued by the Ministry of Justice of the People's Republic of China.
