Inviting a brother or sister to visit Korea is not as easy as inviting a parent. It used to be that one can get a visa even without presenting documents like Certificate of Employment. Since there has been a lot of incidences that the invited sibling used the visa not just for visiting but for work as well. This prompted the Korean Embassy to be stricter in the issuance of the tourist visa.

It is now necessary that the invited sibling is employed before applying for a visa. This has been confirmed by a visitor on my other site…
If the sibling is not employed, he or she should be able to show proof of income that is not sourced from Korea.

hi,, im working here in middle east..i have 1 month vacation in the philipp[ines.. plan q po mag tourist sa south korea just for 10 days and will go back again here in middle east.. do u have any idea for my requirements.. thanks
Hi! Eto requirements ng tourist visa sa Korea:
– copy of the first page of your passport
– ID photo
– application form (you can fill this in sa Embassy mismo)
– certificate of employment
– income tax report (or certificate of tax exemption)
– bank certificate (you can get this from your bank)
Kung hindi ka makakuha ng certificate of employment, pwede mo pakita ang contract mo, copy ng working visa mo at kung wala ka namang income tax report, pwede yung titulo ng bahay o lote mo. Kailangan lang may maipakita ka na proof na kaya mo mag-turista.
Hellow po

hello po,,ask ko lng po kung anu pong way ang magandang gawin, kase po wala na po kaming parents, gusto ko pong iinvite ang kapatid ko dto sa korea, nagiisa lang po kase sya sa pilipinas, at anu pong visa ang dapat iapply…thank you po..
Hi Mariel! Married ka ba sa Korean? Kasi depende yan sa edad ng kapatid mo at kung lalake o babae siya. Kung babae siya at may anak ka na below 5 years old, pwede mong kunin ang kapatid mo at gawing tagapag-alaga. Pwede siya mag-stay dito ng matagal-tagal.

Kung wala ka namang anak, ang pwede lang talaga ay bumisita ang kapatid mo sa ‘yo as tourist.
