Academic Transcript Apostille for Vietnam
Korean academic transcripts for Vietnam now take a standard Overseas Koreans Agency (OKA) 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 EP work permit applications and university enrollment in Vietnam where academic credentials must be verified. Because the change is recent, confirm with the Vietnamese receiving authority whether it also needs a certified Vietnamese translation or other formalities.
