RoK waives visa fees for Vietnamese citizens

Accordingly, the appraisal-fee waiver has been applied to people travelling on short-term visas from 10 ASEAN countries, including Vietnam, for three months, from October 1, 2019, to December 31, 2019.

The 10 ASEAN members include Vietnam, the Philippines, Indonesia, Laos, Myanmar, Cambodia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and Brunei.

The exemption will only be valid for travelers with a duration of stay of less than 90 days on a C-3 short-term visa, which is suitable for people travelling to the RoK for activities such as visiting relatives, business trips, medical treatment, sporting events, and research programmes.

It is worth noting that the application fee of VND390,000 remains unchanged as the RoK only offers an appraisal-fee waiver.
