I am a UK citizen who currently lives in Korea. My parent are getting me my cbc from the uk and are having it fully notorized and apostiled. However, i am confused as to what i need to do with my degree. Do i need to get in apostiled? Who can do that in Korea?

If you can help please leave a reply. Thanks.

If you are renewing, it has indeed been delayed. For future reference, you can use the KCUE. The British Council in Seoul will notarise (but not apostille) your documents as well. If you went the BC route, you'd have to send it to the FCO in Milton Keynes for apostille.

Is there no way to do it in Korea? It seems a bit silly to have to send everything back home. Should i send my degree or a notarized copy to the FCO?

You can do it via the KCUE (http://www.kcue.or.kr/). They are your only option inside Korea. The last I had heard they had stopped accepting applications for the present time. This may have changed. Send a notarized copy to the FCO - not sure if you have to include the original certificate or not with it. You'd have to contact them for that one.

If you were to get it notarized by the BC, it will cost you 60,000w. You get 5 copies for that.
