SUMMARYEducation · public-institution document certification, in 30 secondsClick to collapse/expand▾

To submit education & public institution evidence overseas You must prepare the documents required by the receiving institution (certificates of residence, tax payment certificates, etc.) and complete notarization and an apostille or embassy legalization. For Apostille Convention member countries, one confirmation by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is enough; for non-member countries, embassy legalization in Korea is also required after the Ministry's confirmation.

FAQFAQ
Q What certification does a residency certificate need?▾
A residency certificate for tax-treaty application or overseas-bidding submission needs notarization followed by an apostille (Convention countries) or embassy certification (non-Convention countries). We guide you precisely based on the recipient.
Q What is the difference between an apostille and embassy certification?▾
An apostille is a procedure completed with a single MOFA confirmation between Convention member countries. For non-member countries, after MOFA confirmation you must additionally obtain certification from that country's embassy in Korea.
Q How long does processing take?▾
Translation, notarization and apostille usually take 3–5 business days; including embassy certification, 5–15 business days depending on the country. Urgent processing is also available on request.
Q Can I pay with an export voucher?▾
Yes. The Korea Integrated Civil-Affairs Center is an export-voucher performing agency, so translation and certification costs can be settled with a voucher.
Q Can it proceed even if the original documents are overseas?▾
Yes. Local apostille and consular certification of documents issued abroad can also be handled remotely through our network in 180 countries.
