Korean Documents for Romania

The Hague Apostille Convention has been in force for Romania since March 16, 2001. When a Romanian authority asks for Korean documents to be certified, an apostille is enough and no Romanian Embassy legalization is required. In Korea, the Overseas Koreans Agency (OKA) apostilles public documents and the Ministry of Justice apostilles notarized private documents. Romanian is the official language, so Korean-language documents may need a Romanian translation. The documents and the certification or translation rules for a Long Stay D Visa, a residence permit from the General Inspectorate for Immigration (IGI), university admission or a marriage at a civil registry office are set by the receiving body, so check with it first. Where an apostille or Romanian translation is needed, our specialists can help.
