Canada - Apostille Info

Canada is one of a few countries that does not recognize Apostille so Document authentication is done by the embassy or consulate of the country you wish to get the visa for.  Please contact that embassy or consulate directly to find out their requirements.

Canadian citizens must usually have the Criminal Background Check notarized by a Public Notary or Lawyer first.

Canadian citizens must visit or send their notarized Criminal Background Check to their local Korean Embassy for their stamp of approval.
