Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between a basic certificate and a family relation certificate?
A basic certificate (기본증명서) covers a person's birth details and name changes. A family relation certificate (가족관계증명서) covers their parents, spouse, and children. Marriage and divorce each have their own separate certificate too. Confirm with your receiving authority which one they actually need.
Does JPN accept documents in Korean for marriage registration?
No. JPN requires a certified Bahasa Melayu translation of Korean-language civil documents for marriage registration and related matters.
Do I need the original document or just a copy?
A clear scan or photo is sufficient for translation. Some authorities may separately require the original document or a certified true copy for verification, so check with the receiving department.
Can I use the same translation for PR and school enrollment?
Yes, the same certified translation can generally be used for multiple purposes as long as it remains an accurate, unaltered representation of the original document.
Does Korea require an apostille or embassy legalisation?
Korea is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, so an apostille is usually the correct route for Malaysian documents used in Korea, rather than embassy legalisation. Confirm the specific requirement with the receiving Korean office.
How long does personal document translation take?
Standard certified translation is delivered within 24–48 hours. Urgent same-day service is available for time-sensitive deadlines.
How much does certified Korean document translation cost?
From RM180 for a standard certified personal document translation. Urgent same-day service costs more. We confirm the exact price before you commit.
