In 2022-2023 I studied at the KIIP program and in spring 2023 I completed the program.
In May 2023, I successfully passed the citizenship exam. Also in January 2023, I applied for citizenship and went through all the procedures (certificates, certificates from the country of birth, translations, etc.).
As a result, in order to summarize all this information, I wrote a comprehensive, structured and comprehensible guide "How to obtain Korean citizenship" with a step-by-step explanation and my personal experience in the KIIP program.
I think it is very important that those who are now at the beginning of this path get information from those who have personally passed all this.
My guide consists of 45 pages.
작가 소개
Hello!
My name is Svetlana and I live in Seoul.
I am a KIIP social integration program consultant in the Republic of Korea and a licensed Korean to Russian and English court and medical certified translator. I'm also a mom of three teenagers and an avid traveler.
A Korean passport opens a window to a world without borders - 186 countries to visit visa-free!
I decided to write this guide when I went through the Korean citizenship process myself. Using my experience, I want your path to South Korean citizenship to be easy and trouble free!
Of the three paths to Korean citizenship, the marriage path is described in more detail, as this was my case. If there is a different way for you and you still have questions, we can resolve them through a private consultation.
In addition to citizenship issues, I will be glad to:
Organize a trip to the Republic of Korea for you
Book a hotel for you in South Korea
Help to book and purchase transport tickets in Korea, arrange car rental, etc.
Advise you on issues related to Korean visas, documents (entry and exit), foreign passports, obtaining a Korean residence permit, permanent residency, citizenship, emigration, communications with consulates, admission to Korean schools, universities, relocation and departure from Korea, tax issues, etc.
If you don't find what you're looking for on the list, please contact me.
