Apostille Korea has been selected as a supplier under Korea's Non-Contact Voucher program for the second consecutive year, allowing it to keep providing online civil-affairs services that help companies issue, translate, notarize and certify documents for use abroad without visiting government offices.
- Apostille Korea was named a Non-Contact Voucher supplier for two years in a row.
- Re-selection lets it keep delivering its global civil-affairs service online.
- The service spans issuance, translation, notarization and certification for overseas use.
- Certification follows the destination: apostille for Hague members, embassy legalization for non-members.
What the repeat selection means
The Non-Contact Voucher is a Korean government program that helps businesses adopt online, contactless services, with eligible suppliers listed so that supported companies can use them. Being chosen for a second straight year keeps Apostille Korea on that supplier list, so businesses can continue to issue Korean public and corporate documents, obtain certified translations, arrange notarization and complete the required certification entirely online — without traveling to issuing agencies or embassies.
How documents are certified for overseas use
The certification route is set by the country where a document will be submitted. For a Hague Apostille Convention member, a notarized translation plus an apostille is generally enough. For a non-member, the document needs authentication by Korea's foreign ministry and then legalization at that country's embassy. Foreign-issued documents are certified in their country of origin. Apostille Korea reviews each case, prepares the matching certification and returns documents ready to submit, so companies can meet overseas requirements on time.
