Apostille
Documents for South Korea: translation and apostille
South Korea is a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, so documents issued in Kyrgyzstan only need an apostille — no consular legalisation. Some countries require the translation to be done by one of their own sworn translators; our international network can arrange that too.
Step by step
- Apostille on the original or a notarised copy
- Translation into Korean
- Certification of the translation (notary or sworn translator, as required)
- Delivery of the finished documents
Requirements can change and vary between institutions. We confirm the current requirements before starting every order.

Frequently asked questions
Is an apostille valid in every country?
No. An apostille is only valid in Hague Convention countries that have not objected to Kyrgyzstan's accession. The UAE, Qatar and Egypt, for example, require consular legalisation. Austria and Greece objected to Kyrgyzstan's accession, so consular legalisation is needed for them as well.
Can a foreign document be apostilled in Kyrgyzstan?
No. An apostille can only be issued in the country where the document was issued. For foreign documents we can arrange the apostille in the issuing country through our international network.
Can Soviet-era documents be apostilled?
Usually not directly — a duplicate in the current Kyrgyz format has to be obtained first. We can handle that retrieval for you.
