Xie Yingzhou was born in 1894 to accountant Xie Weinan, who later served on the Guangdong Advisory Council. Xie's courtesy name was Xianting. He was educated in Tsungfa, and completed secondary education elsewhere in Guangdong and Shanghai. Xie married Gao Yicha at the age of 20, then left for France, where he pursued legal studies at the University of Paris.
Xie returned to China in 1924, joined the Kuomintang, and was offered a position on the faculty of law at National Guangdong University by school president Zou Lu.
The next year, Xie was named to positions within the Guangdong branch of the Kuomintang, working alongside Gu Ying-fen. In 1927, Xie began teaching at the Republic of China Military Academy, National Central University in Nanking and the Peking University Law School. On 6 November 1928, Xie started working at the Examination Yuan. That December, he transferred to the Ministry of Justice, where he remained until 1932. He was then named a member of the Guangdong Provincial Government, serving as provincial minister of education from 1933. In February 1935, Xie was appointed to the Guangdong High Court.

He remained at the National Audit Office until September 1945.
Subsequently, Xie returned to the Ministry of Justice until he was elected to the presidium of the National Assembly in 1947.
