Hi Friends!
I'm back with another visa application experience. This is my 3rd time applying for a Korean Visa and this time, our application is directed to the newly opened Korea Visa Application Center - the official designated visa application center of the Korean Embassy.
In this video, I talked about my experience in their pilot test run period (Aug 14 - 25). I also shared how our application took about 4 hours in the visa center, requirements for multiple-entry applicants and for sponsored applicants, as well as the process inside the visa center, and the fees.
As of August 23, 2023, I already got my passport back and I was only granted a Single Entry again. I guess South Korea is really strict in giving out ME visas. Despite of my strong travel history, I am still unable to secure the ME visa. Nevertheless, I am still grateful and thankful. Manifesting an approved visa for all of us!
PS. Please arrive early when you pick up your passport. Mine took 2hours just to collect. Maybe they are still fixing their system since they are still in their pilot testing period, but 2 hours?! Better to be early.
Passport pick up time is from 1PM-5PM, cut off is 4PM.
I hope you find this video relatable and helpful. See you on my next vlog!
