FBI apostille for South Korea
Teaching in South Korea? The E-2 visa requires an apostilled FBI background check — and we do the whole thing under one roof. We take your prints, pull your FBI report in about 30 minutes, and apostille it for Korea. Nationwide by mail.
South Korea is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, so an apostille from the U.S. Department of State is all the authentication your FBI background check needs — no embassy legalization required.
Common reasons people need an FBI apostille for South Korea
If South Korea is asking for your FBI background check "apostilled," "authenticated," or "legalized," an FBI apostille from the U.S. Department of State is what you need. We take your fingerprints, get your FBI report in about 30 minutes, and apostille it — one team, start to finish. Need the FBI check itself?
Heads up for E-2 applicants: Korean immigration wants a recent FBI background check, apostilled. If you need the check itself, we fingerprint you and pull the report in about 30 minutes, then apostille it — no separate vendor trip.
