Accreditation tier and visa application route
A Korean-mission application is the default route. Master's (D-2-3) and doctoral (D-2-4) programmes may also be permitted to use an e-visa, but actual operation must be confirmed with the university. Where several routes are permitted, a mission application is the principle.
For D-4-1, nationals of China, Vietnam, Mongolia and Uzbekistan use the Certificate of Visa Eligibility route through the university; other nationals apply at the competent Korean mission. Applicants from Syria or Kosovo also use the Certificate of Visa Eligibility route.
