So K-VISA takes care of it for you

1. 1Relationship history and genuine marriage: We organize how you met and your time together so the story is consistent
2. 2Sponsor's income: If it falls short, we first check for other options like assets or family income
3. 3Communication: We decide how to prove your Korean level or the language you both use
4. 4Housing: We show with documents that your home is a proper place to live together

Can I apply? Check the requirements

• Legally married to a Korean citizen (marriage registered in both Korea and the spouse's country)
• The Korean sponsor's income meets the Ministry of Justice standard for the household size; assets can make up a shortfall
• A home for the couple to live in (rented or owned by the couple or family)
• The couple can communicate at a basic level (in Korean or a shared language)
• The marriage is shown to be genuine, for example through how the couple met
• No disqualifying reasons, such as the sponsor having invited another foreign spouse in the past 5 years

Standards can change and differ by person. We'll check them for your situation during the free check.
