Due to the increasing volume
of visa applicants, the Embassy of the Republic of Korea in the Philippines
issued a notice of change of visa processing period.

Gyeongbok
Palace, Seoul
|
Effective April 1, 2019, the original visa processing period of 3 days
for frequent travelers and 5 days for first-time travelers will be increased to
7 working days. In addition, the Embassy will no longer allow pulling out of passports or documents once the application is received, regardless of the reason.

However, there are no changes in the processing
period of visa applications other than temporary visitor's visa (C-3), visa
issuance number holders, and seafarers scheduled to embark in Korea. For those
who need rush processing of visa due to personal reasons, they may avail the
existing express visa processing system (2 days processing, express fee $20).

For those who wish to apply for a
Korean visa, note that 7 working days
starts upon submission of visa application to Korea Embassy and does not
include Rasko Travel's processing time.
In line with this, Rakso Travel is
aligning its procedure in preparation for the change to secure enough
processing time required by the embassy and at the same time meeting the need of
its clientele.
For more information,
you may call Rakso Travel at 6519000, or send an email to
support@raksotravel.com or chat with them live.
