Two directions, two distinct situations

Korean Document Translation: Outbound and Inbound

Each direction serves a different family or immigration situation.

Korean to English/Malay (inbound)

Korean nationals living in Malaysia need certified English or Malay translations of their family relation certificate, marriage or divorce certificate, and academic transcripts for PR applications, MyKad, JPN marriage registration, or school enrollment.

English/Malay to Korean (outbound)

Malaysians marrying a Korean national, or relocating to Korea for work or study, need certified Korean translations of their Malaysian birth certificate, marriage certificate, or academic documents.

Basic certificate or family relation certificate — which do you need? Korea's civil registration system issues several distinct certificates: a basic certificate (기본증명서) covering birth details and name changes, and a separate family relation certificate (가족관계증명서) covering parents, spouse, and children. Marriage and divorce each have their own certificate too. Confirm which specific certificate your receiving authority wants before ordering, since they show different information.

Questions people ask

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.
