I sent my UK crc off to the British High Commission (Embassy) in Wellington, New Zealand last week to get an apostille, only to have the friendly kiwi bureaucrat phone to apologetically tell me that they don't do apostilles after all .

Has anyone ever had a British Subject Access letter apostilled at the UK Embassy in Seoul? Is is a straight-foward process? Does my letter need to be notarized first?

This seems my best option now. I don't fancy the idea of having it done at Milton Keynes. Any advice would be appreciated.

Cheers

I enquired this to the British Embassy in Seoul about 2 weeks ago.

They are not able to apostille documents.

However, they are able to legalise documents in the form of attestation.

I was told that this way is accepted by Korean Immigration.

Here it is on their website:

Thanks for the advice. I wonder if they can provide the attestation service in the High Commission in Wellington too. I'll find out.

Cheers
