Records when returning to Korea

We have a host-government licence on record

Not found on the MOE simplified list. The school has a licence from the local education authority on record, so on return you can show it is a regular school with apostilled or consular-confirmed documents, or with the local authority's list of recognised schools.

When you return to Korea, the local education office decides on recognition from the school's government approval and the documents (apostille or consular confirmation).

Licensing body: Zentralstelle für das Auslandsschulwesen (ZfA) im Auftrag des Auswärtigen Amtes

Document confirmation

This country is a party to the Apostille Convention. For a school not on the list, get an apostille from the local authority.

If the school is not on the list

Show that it is a regular school (for example the local education authority's list of recognised schools), or submit documents with an apostille (convention countries) or consular confirmation (others). Additions to the list go through the Korean mission or Korean Education Centre.

· The MOE list only simplifies paperwork. It does not vouch for teaching quality.

· Education offices spot-check re-entry documents; forged or altered documents cancel the transfer.
