Apostille Korea has introduced a one-stop service that prepares the documents a corporate traveller needs for a business trip to Vietnam, handling issuance, translation, notarization and certification together online so a deployment can be arranged without repeated in-person visits to public offices.
- The service targets employees and companies preparing documents for business travel to Vietnam.
- Typical paperwork includes a criminal record certificate, employment or assignment letters and supporting personal records.
- Apostille Korea issues, translates, notarizes and certifies the documents through a single online channel.
- Because Vietnam joined the Hague Apostille Convention, Korean public documents are certified by apostille rather than embassy legalization.
Why a Vietnam assignment needs certified documents
When an employee is sent to Vietnam for work, the receiving authorities and partners there often ask for officially authenticated Korean documents — commonly a criminal record certificate, proof of employment and related personal records. Because Vietnam is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, a Korean public document is recognised once it carries an apostille, attached to a certified translation, rather than going through embassy legalization. Confirming which documents the Vietnamese counterpart requires before departure prevents a trip being delayed by a missing certification.
How the one-stop service works
Apostille Korea consolidates the steps a business traveller would otherwise complete at several offices — issuing the underlying certificate, translating it, notarizing the translation and obtaining the apostille — into one online request. The company says this lets a company prepare a deployment within a tight schedule, without sending staff to government windows in person, and reduces the risk of a document being rejected for the wrong certification format.
