South Korea: 5 Years Multiple Entry Visa (KVAC Experience in June 2025)
When the simplified visa application for South Korea was announced, I've been wanting to apply for another multiple entry visa.
I was granted a three years multiple entry visa for January 2018 - January 2021 which I've used for five trips.

Anyway, there should be no bearing whether or not you've had a previous South Korean visa since this is a reapplication and not a renewal.
I made use of the simplified requirements which definitely made this a lot easier.

Sharing with you my visa processing timeline:
June 5, 2025 - We went to KVAC in 9/F, Brittany Hotel, Aura Complex, 6 McKinley Pkwy, Taguig City, Metro Manila - this is beside SM Aura in BGC.
I was only able to download the Application Form. Good thing that they print out a copy of the Data Privacy Consent Form so I was able to comply with the requirements. I only paid P 10.00 for it.
Make sure to get download both forms though. Five pages for the application and one page for the Data Privacy Consent Form. I tried scanning the QR code above in Google Lens and I was redirected to their website.
As long as you have all the necessary documents, getting a queue number is quite fast.

Waited for my number to get flashed on the screen. Went up a floor to submit the documents and pay for the application and courier service.

Whole process lasted for only 50 minutes.
June 17, 2025 - I received my passport with a five years multiple entry visa grant. This arrived four days early than what I was expecting. Since the tentative date of release was June 19, the lady told me that the passport have an additional day or two (June 20 - 21) before it gets delivered to me but it didn't actually take that long.
Fees:
Visa - P 900.00
Delivery Fee - P 300.00
Visa - P 900.00
Delivery Fee - P 300.00
Thank you, Korean Embassy for my multiple visa! Can't wait to go back "home."
