Provided are a packet processing apparatus and method used when an output bitstream of an embedded codec is divided into a plurality of packets and transmitted accordingly, and more particularly, an efficient packet processing apparatus and method which can reduce deterioration of sound quality which may occur when a packet required for the reproduction of a voice signal is not received due to different arrival times of a plurality of packets at a receiving end if an output bitstream of an embedded codec is divided into the packets and transmitted accordingly through a path or a plurality of paths. In particular, an apparatus for processing packets of an embedded codec is provided. The apparatus includes a packet reception unit receiving packets, a layer information unit identifying layer information from received packets, a bitstream determination unit using the received packets, and a bitstream generation unit generating a new bitstream. The apparatus is used to provide a voice and multimedia service using an embedded codec in a packet network.
