Native Korean translators
Translators who read the stamps as well as the text
Our Korean translators are native speakers who have been tested on the Korean and English pair. They work with civil status records, court rulings, school certificates and medical reports written in the Hangul script.
Handwritten entries, faded stamps and bilingual forms are everyday work. You review the translation before it is final, and we use the English spelling of your name that you give us.
- Native Korean speakers, tested on the pair
- You review before it is final
- Signed certificate of accuracy
- 100% USCIS acceptance guarantee
What to know about Korean documents
South Korean documents come to us for family petitions, work visas, university admissions and adoptee record requests. Korea reorganized its civil registry in 2008, so the right document depends on when it was issued.
- Family relation certificates
- Since 2008 the 호적 family register has been replaced by individual certificates: the 기본증명서 with birth details, the 가족관계증명서 with parents, spouse and children, and the 혼인관계증명서 for marriage. Older files, including adoption records, still hold the 호적등본 in mixed Hangul and Hanja.
- Romanization
- Korean names romanize several ways (Lee, Yi, Rhee; Park, Pak; Jeong, Chung), and certificates print Hangul and often Hanja. We write the name as your passport does and keep the Hangul in brackets, so the certificate ties to your other records.
- Resident registration
- The 주민등록등본 and 초본 record address history and household members. The 13-digit resident registration number is reproduced exactly, and an attached apostille is translated with the document.
Korean documents we translate
Pick the document you have. Some have a page written for Korean records; the rest open the general document page, which covers the same service.
Who is asking for your Korean translation?
The translation is the same. What changes is whether the recipient wants anything added to it.
USCIS
USCIS asks for a complete English translation and a signed certification from the translator. No notarization is needed.
US passports and the Department of State
The Department of State wants the translation notarized. Add notarization at checkout and we handle the rest.
Consulates and authorities abroad
Sending a US document abroad? We translate from English into Korean and can add an apostille for Hague Convention countries.
