How to Check your SOUTH KOREA VISA APPLICATION STATUS Online

How to Check online your South Korea Visa Application Status KOREA VISA REQUIRMENTS

Okay, your Korean Visa Application was accepted and it is now being processed, and you're too excited to know if you were granted a visa or not. It usually takes about 3 working days for the visa to be released for applicants with OECD Visa/s. For those without OECD visa, applying in Manila takes about 5 working days for your visa to be processed and 7 working days if you're applying in Cebu.

Last February 14, 2018, I went to the Korean Embassy in Manila to apply for a tourist visa. After submitting all the required documents, I was given a slip that says my passport will be released on February 20, 2018 whether my application is approved or not. I have a Japan Visa which is one of the members of the OECD or Organization for Economic Co-operation. That's why, my passport will be released only after 3 working days. Yey!
