Apostilte Requin exl?ent

Those who are newly admitted to KAIST should submit Apostille certificates (official certificates such as
diplomas, transcripts, etc.J within 15 days after they are enrolled to KAIST. Read the instruction carefully and
prepare for the required certificates before you ieave your country.

Public documenrs issued by public schoois or institutions such as diplomas, transcripts, etc. should attach
Apostille certificates. Pubiic documents from private schools or institutions should have notarial atteslations
before applying for Apostille certificates. AII of &e documents should be written in English or Korean. If it is
written in another language, it should be translated into English or Korean and notarized by a notary office
before applflng for Apostille certificate.

What is an Apostille?
Public documents, such as birth certificates, judgments, patents or notarial attestations of signatures,
frequently need to be used abroad, However, before a public document can be used in a country other than
the one that issued i! its origin must often be authentiCated, The traditionai method for authenticating public
documents to be used abroad is called legalization. For this legalization process is frequently, slow,
cumbersome and costly, a large number of counffies all over the'world have joined a treaty that greatly
simplifies the authentication of public documents to be used abroad. This treaty is called the Hague
Convention of 5 October 1961 Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents. It is
commonly known as t}te Apostille Convention. The treaty reduces the alithentication process to a single
formality: &e issuance of an authentication certificate by an authority desighated by the country where the
1.

public document was issued. This certificate is called an Apostiile.

2.

In which countries does the Apostille Convention apply?

Click here to see the updated tist $f:the,tbuntties whgie Ar.oitiiie Conve'ntion applies.

* if your

public document

was,, issued

in a country where the Apostille Convention does not apply, you

shoulcl submit a Certificate of Authentication issued by the Korean Embassy or Consulate in your counrry.
3. Where do

I get

an s{postille?

Each country that is a parfy to the Convention must designate one or several authorities that are entitled to
issue Apostilles. Th"eSe authorities are called Competent Authorifies - only they are permitted to issue

Apostilies.
Click here to see the list of all Competent Authorities designated by each country that has joined the Apostille
4.

How much does an Apostille cost?

-Vany Competent Authorities do charge for Apostilles. The price among Competent Authorities varies greatly.
For practical information of the prices that individuai countiies charge, see the information availabie here.

For further defails, please see the website of tf,e flaguij Conference at www.hcch.net. The Hague Conference is
the Organization that developed the Apostille Convention. All relevant and updated information about the
Apostille Convention is available in the 'Apostille Section' of the Hague Conference website.

X Note: KAIST graduates and applicants from university in Korea are exemptfrom Apostille Requirements.
X Note: Students who graduated from Chinese universities can submit a credentials report of degree certificate
and transcript issued by China Academic Degree & Graduate Education Development Center
[http://www.cdgdc.edu.cn] instead of Certificare of Authentication issued by Korean Embassy or Consulate in
