Hey, I am thinking about flying to Korea and looking for work. What documents do I need?

This is taken directly from the Required documents on the EPIK website.

Canada does not adnere to the apostille convention. Therefore Canadian applicant must 1) have their documents notarized by a public notary, then 2) submit that notarized copy to the nearest Korean consulate or embassy for final notarization.



You need to come with:

1) Two written references, from former schools preferably or from academics at the university you went to. You should have multiple copies of the reference. They should be in sealed envelopes and written on paper with a letterhead and signed. Have one of them scanned.

2. A national criminal background check from the Royal Canadian police force that is notarized. Canada doesn't have a apostille treatly with South Korea so they won't apostille them.

3) I would bring your degree certificate with you. Also get some notarized copies, I think those should work.

Pesonally, if I were flying over in a document, I'd come over in an express one as going by surface doument means being crammed up tight in that envelope for a month or so at the bottom of a boat and could be quite uncomfortable.
