Power of Attorney Apostille for Vietnam
Korean powers of attorney for Vietnam are notarized documents, so they now take a standard Ministry of Justice (MOJ) apostille. Viet Nam's accession to the Hague Apostille Convention entered into force on 11 September 2026, so the old OKA authentication plus Vietnamese Embassy legalization chain is no longer the normal route. This is used for legal representation before Vietnamese courts and notaries, FDI company management authorization, and property transactions involving a Vietnamese party. Because the change is recent, confirm with the Vietnamese receiving authority whether it also needs a certified Vietnamese translation or other formalities.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use an apostilled Korean power of attorney in Vietnam?
Yes. Vietnam now applies the Hague Apostille Convention with Korea, so a notarized Korean power of attorney takes a Ministry of Justice apostille instead of authentication plus Vietnamese Embassy legalization. Check with the Vietnamese notary or court for translation requirements.
