Authentication Process for Submission to Oman

How should you prepare Korean documents for submission to Oman? The basic flow is as follows.

① Obtain document→ ② Notarization if a private document→ ③ Check if translation is needed→ ④ Apostille→ ⑤ Submit to the Omani receiving institution
Since the Convention took effect in 2012, Oman uses the single apostille procedure. However, HCCH records show some contracting states have objected to Oman's accession — meaning an Omani apostille may not be recognized identically by all Convention members — so confirming with the receiving country in advance is recommended.
