Certified passport copies are required for foreign bank accounts, company formation, property transactions and visa applications.
For use abroad a passport copy typically goes through (1) issuance (in English where available), (2) apostille or consular legalisation and (3) translation into the destination language with notarisation. The order and requirements differ by country and authority – we check them so you pay only for what is needed.
We also translate the equivalent foreign documents into Korean for Korean authorities, and verify the foreign apostille or legalisation.

Frequently asked questions
How long does a certified translation of a passport copy take?
Usually 1–3 business days; an apostille or legalisation adds a few days depending on the route. Ask us about urgent handling.
Does my passport copy need an apostille?
If the destination is an Apostille Convention member, yes; otherwise consular and embassy legalisation are required. Whether the original, the translation or both need it depends on the receiving office – we advise in advance.
I'm abroad – can you obtain my passport copy for me?
Where Korean law allows an agent to request it, we obtain it with your power of attorney, certify it and ship it abroad. We check eligibility first.
