Which certificate do you need?

South Korea requests come in two kinds.

  • A certificate issued by South Korea

    You stayed in South Korea as a student or for work, and another country now asks for proof that your record there is clear.

  • An Indian PCC for South Korea

    You are going to South Korea for work, study or long-term residence, and are asked for a police clearance from India with an apostille.

  • Not sure which one

    Send us the wording of the request you received. We tell you which certificate it means before you start.

How it works

Who does what, from your first message to the certificate.

  1. Step 1: Tell us what you were asked for

    You

    Whether you stayed in South Korea or are going there, and the request you received. We confirm which certificate you need.

  2. Step 2: We send your checklist and the fee

    Trueway

    On WhatsApp, for your case, with the expected time. You decide after you have seen them.

  3. Step 3: We prepare the application with you

    Trueway

    We check your copies and prepare the application. You review every detail before it is submitted.

  4. Step 4: The authority issues the certificate

    Authority

    For a Korean certificate, the South Korean authority checks its records. For an Indian PCC, the Indian authority does. Trueway does not control this step; we follow it up.

  5. Step 5: Certificate, then the apostille for an Indian PCC

    Trueway

    We check the certificate with you. An Indian PCC for South Korea is then apostilled by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), India, and we handle that process.

Good to know

  • The name must match

    For the Korean certificate, write your name on the forms exactly as you used it in South Korea for your bank account or your phone connection. A different name is the main reason for rejection.

  • What delays a South Korea PCC

    A name that differs from your Korean records, an address that does not match, wrong passport details, a missing apostille, or incomplete documents. We check each of these before submission.

  • Apostille for the Indian PCC

    South Korea is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention. An Indian PCC must be apostilled by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), India. Without it, South Korean authorities may not accept the certificate.

    Highly recommend Mary Jemi here. This is our second time working with her for PCC. As usual excellent communication and detailed explanation of the process. We got PCC for Bahrain this time and previously for Oman. Both times process was very straightforward. Ask for her when you call the office!
  • Moncy Varghese

    Excellent communication and coordination by Mary Jemi. I needed PCC for Oman and within a weeks time of submitting the documents, I got the PCC. It was for my dad who worked there over 15 years back and Mary Jemi guided me and answered all questions promptly regarding whats required for PCC. Highly recommend!
