在韩国住过半年以上去到其他国家时，包括移民，留学，工作或其他原因，即可能要出具韩国的无犯罪记录证明。比如中国的要求是，在韩国居住超过六个月的时间，并且是年满十八周岁回国就业 。不同国家可能时间上会有差异。 韩国无犯罪记录有两种，一种是BACKGROUND CHECK(CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION RECORD) CERTIFICATE; 这种在韩国驻本地领馆就可以开到，但有可能被接收方拒绝，比如中国永居用途。因为在认证过程中，此文件被视为由中国境内发出的。所以这里强调一下，安全起见在韩国本地开出就行了。韩国Investigation record不是所有国家都承认，比如加拿大不接受此种。另一种是BACKGROUND CHECK CERTIFICATE INCLUDING LAPSED RECORD. 这种覆盖全面，所以准备材料上面稍麻烦些。当申请人在本地，直接到警方开具就行了很简单，如果在境外，申请材料如下：

所需材料：

• 护照首页；
• 曾用名和居住地址；
• 申请无犯罪记录的用途；
• 签名的委托书原件；
• 无罪申请表；

办理时间：

4个工作日+国际邮寄

如果在中国或其他国家使用时，需要进行海牙认证或使馆认证，个别国家还需要法定翻译。

海牙/领馆认证所需材料：

• 护照首页；
• 无犯罪记录原件；
• 认证申请表（可代填）

办理时间：

4-6个工作日+国际邮寄；翻译时间另计，如需翻译，请告知我们具体哪种对应语种。

如果涉及个人和商业的其他文件，办理时长会不同，具体要求请咨询我们。
