If you are planning to study in Korea, you must apply for a relevant visa at an overseas Korean embassy or consulate. In order to obtain a visa you must submit the required documents to your embassy. The application procedure may vary depending on the embassy or consulate, so it is advised that you check with your local Korean embassy or consulate beforehand. The length of the visa is determined by the Korean consular officer, and the expiration date on your visa may not match the end date of your degree program or employment contract. If your visa expires before you complete your tasks, you will need to apply for a visa extension at the Korean Immigration Office.

※ Required documents may be added or changed depending on individual circumstances. For more information, contact the Korean Immigration Office. Tel. 1345 (no area code)
