The following outlines the differences when applying for visa issuance through overseas consulate.
* By rule, must apply from the Korean consulate that is located in the applicant�s country.
※ When applying from a third country is permitted:
- Those that have worked in Korea as a Professor (E-1), Foreign language instructor (E-2), or Researcher (E-3), and have no record of law breaking
-�Those whose education level has been verified by domestic verification agency (�Korean Council for University Education�) that was created based on Law on Korean University Education Association
▶By rule, must go through an interview at the consulate. (However, those that applied for visa issuance from a third country may skip this portion as situation warrants)
- According to the standard interview manual, conduct a face-to-face interview. However, if circumstances were such that making a visit is not possible or plausible, then it may be conducted over video conference.
- If, after the interview, the applicant is deemed unfit to work as an instructor, visa will not be issued regardless of the issuance of visa issuance certificate.
Notes for consulates receiving visa applications
* Checking whether the applicant is eligible to apply for a visa from a third country.
- From immigration information system: Navigate to「Visa→Visa issuance certificate」, find Education Verification (new), then check for entry of 「Education verification (�Korean Council for University Education�)」
- From immigration information system: Using「Stay →Registration→Foreigner registration」, check for whether the applicant has a record of having stayed with Professorship (E-1), Foreign Language Instructor (E-2) and Research(E-3) status
- From immigration information system: Using「Crime control →Crime inspection→Search criminal record」, check for record of lawbreaking activities during the applicant�s past stays in Korea
* For foreigners that are not eligible for application in the concerned consulate, instruct them to apply for visa issuance from a Korean consulate in their home country. |
