From October 1st to the end of 2019, visitors to the Republic of Korea who are Vietnamese nationals or citizens of ASEAN countries will have their visa application fees waived. However, the policy is only applied to short-term visas (C-3).

The move, offered by the Korean Ministry of Justice, aims to increase flights from ASEAN countries to the RoK and organize special summits.
Accordingly, the appraisal-fee waiver will be applied to people travelling on short-term visas from 10 ASEAN countries, for three months, starting from October 1st, 2019.
However, the RoK only offers the appraisal-fee waiver. Fee for receiving the document remains unchanged at VND390,000.
The C-3 short-term visa is for travelers to the RoK staying less than 90 days; mainly for activities such as visiting relatives, business trips, medical treatment, sporting events and research./.
