(Apostille)
If you need to obtain a country's certification of a document that was issued in another country, it is required to get legalization for the document from the country. In general, the country where the issued document is supposed to be used confirms the reliability of the document by the country's foreign diplomatic office's consular certificate. Apostille was introduced to solve the inconvenience that is encountered in terms of time and cost in the abovementioned process. Under the apostille convention, the relevant authorities of the country where a document was issued certify the document, and the apostille member countries legalize the document so that it can be used directly in their territories.

In case of Korea, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade and the Ministry of Justice are designated to have the authorities over apostille. The abovementioned authorities issue the certification of apostille with official seal or signature affixed under the apostille convention. The documents of Korea confirmed under the apostille convention are made effective in the apostille member countries without the consular certificate of any foreign diplomatic office resident in Korea.
