Starting 1 July 2020, the embassy of the Republic of Korea will no longer issue a visa label for applications filed in the Philippines. A visa label is the sticker that is affixed on a page of the passport when the visa is granted.
Instead, the embassy will be issuing a “Visa grant Notice” online, which the applicant can print out and present to the South Korean Immigration. According to the Embassy, the country’s immigration arm has employed a recently improved visa information system that can verify the traveler’s visa status and other information, eliminating the need for a sticker.
❗️ important ❗️ This does NOT mean that a passport is not required when applying for a visa. A VALID PASSPORT must STILL BE submitted in order for the embassy to verify your identity and document pertinent travel information. much of the application process will still be the same. only the issuance of the visa will be done online.
