SOUTH KOREAN PASSPORT/VISA PHOTO REQUIREMENTS AND SIZE

When you decide to travel abroad, chances are that you need to obtain a South Korean passport. Getting a South Korean passport is not a difficult task, although you must pay attention to details. You need a few documents at hand, to fill in an application, but you also must submit a set of 2 passport photos. iVisa Photos cannot do much about the required documents and the application form, but we can help you get your pictures from home. That way, you do not have to go to a professional photo studio.

We also recommend that you take a look at iVisa Photos. The citizens of South Korea are eligible for several electronic visas, and if you qualify for one for your next trip, iVisa can assist you with the online application process.
