Oppdatering angående ITR! (Juni 2018): Ambassaden har avslørt at start 26. mars 2018, førstegangsreisende som ikke har reist som turister til noen type OECD-land i løpet av de siste 5 årene, bør sende inn følgende:
– For ansatte, ITR. Ambassadesiden nevner ikke lenger at ITR -kopien skal ha BIR GOT eller BIR lisensiert ekte kopirestempel. Imidlertid var dette stempelet nødvendig tidligere. Jeg forstår ikke om det fortsatt er tilfelle.
-For selvstendig næringsdrivende, BIR-type med tilsvarende tilbakebetalingskvittering fra en BIR-autorisert bank.
Fra 1. juli 2018. Business Alphalist er ikke lenger nødvendig. Imidlertid kan det bli bedt om som ekstra fil for noen søkere. Men hvis du søker før 1. juli, vil du fortsatt kreve å tilby det som standard.
Innlevering av ITR fravikes for søkere som har reist til Sør -Korea, mye mer enn 2x i løpet av de siste 4 årene, så vel som søkere som har reist i det minste når til enhver type OECD -land i løpet av de siste 5 årene. Dette er ifølge Constellation Travels, som er et offisielt ambassade-utpekt reisebyrå.
For husholdningsapplikasjoner, bør du tilby filer som kan tjene som et bevis på forhold. Fødselsattester så vel som ekteskapskontrakter aksepteres. En representant kan data for hele familien.

Hvordan søke om koreansk visum
1. Inspiser den siste frigjøringsdatoen så vel som behandlingstid.
Det aller første du burde gjøre er å se om frigjøringsdatoen er bra med deg. Det siste du ønsker er å bruke så mye tid i tillegg til å jobbe med kravene bare for å erkjenne at du ikke får visumet ditt i tide.
På grunn av det økende volumet av applikasjoner de mottar, har den koreanske ambassaden forlenget behandlingstiden. Det er vanskelig å oppgi nøyaktig nøyaktig hvor lang tid behandlingen kan ta siden den endrer seg uke etter uke, avhengig av antall applikasjoner. Imidlertid er det vanligvis 24-36 virkedager.
OPPDATERING: Den koreanske ambassaden har avslørt at start av mars 2020, vil visumbehandlingsperioden bli redusert til 10 til 15 virkedager.
Den koreanske ambassaden gir rutinemessige kunngjøringer på deres offisielle nettsted.
2. Totalt alle kravene.
Forsikre deg om at du har samlet alle kravene som er nevnt ovenfor.
Oppføringen er i samsvar med en spesifikk ordre. De grunnleggende krever først, deretter fotokopi av OECD -visum, deretter de økonomiske/sysselsettingsdokumentene, samt til slutt invitasjonsbrevet eller følgebrevet hvis du har det.
Du vil også bli gitt oppføringen når du går inn i ambassaden, slik at du kan omorganisere dokumentene på stedet.
3. submit the files to a designated travel agency.
Now that you have all the needed documents, it’s time to discover an officially designated travel agency. The embassy certified 35 companies where you can lodge your application. If you’re familiar with the Japan Visa application process, it works quite much the same.
The great news is, numerous of these travel companies have branches all around the country, which implies it’s simpler for applicants in the provinces to apply.
To see the full listing of travel agencies, their addresses, as well as get in touch with details, visit: listing of Korean Embassy-Accredited travel Agencies.
The only applicants that can directly apply at the embassy are spouses as well as kids of Koreans, government workers on official busin
