As for Chinese names, almost always the short name is the surname.
I use in my listings an extra comma after this surname.
Chen Yi - surname Chen. I list as Chen, Yi.
------------
Prefixes: here I use the way it is done in the country he/she comes from.
Jan de Jong (Firstname-prefix-surname) from the Netherlands becomes Jong, Jan de. When he is a Belgian I use De Jong, Jan. For an American I right here De Jong, Jan. One of my cousins in the US is actually named so.
He uses himself DeJong, Jan. [prefix and surname in one].
Like Latvian wrote there are many possibilities. Even more so when the original name comes from a non-western language.
