Document Apostille

Power of Attorney Apostille for China

Korean powers of attorney for use in mainland China are notarized documents, so they take a standard Ministry of Justice (MOJ) apostille. China is a Hague Apostille Convention party, so the old OKA authentication plus Chinese Embassy/Consulate legalization (领事认证) chain is not the normal route. This is used for legal representation before Chinese courts, property transactions in China, WFOE/JV business setup, and financial transactions. Translation requirements and any extra local formalities are decided by the receiving authority, so confirm with it.
