Vue d'ensemble

The A-2 visa is issued to foreign government officials (non-diplomatic rank) and staff of international organizations approved by the Korean government who are stationed in or visiting Korea on official business. This includes officials sent under bilateral government agreements, staff of UN agencies, OECD, and other recognized international bodies. Unlike A-1, A-2 holders do not have full diplomatic immunity.

Pour qui est le visa A-2 ?

Foreign government staff below diplomatic rank sent to Korea on official assignment, and employees of international organizations (UN, OECD, WHO, World Bank, etc.) stationed in Korea. Also includes staff of foreign trade and government promotion offices with official recognition from Korea.

Conditions d'éligibilité

  • Appointment to an official government position by a foreign government and formally recognized by the Korean government

  • OR employment by an international organization officially recognized by the Republic of Korea

  • Official documentation from the sending government or international organization

  • Clean record — no previous immigration violations

  • Dependent family (shared scope with A-1, per the current issuance manual): legal spouse (1 recognized even where multiple legal spouses are permitted at home); minor unmarried cohabiting children; unmarried cohabiting children 20 or under enrolled as regular K-12 students (the manual marks this item as applying from 2022-11-01); unmarried cohabiting children 26 or under in regular university-level education or research; parents (of the official or spouse) aged 60+ entering on condition of not working; and adult unmarried cohabiting children with a disability who cannot independently support themselves

Visa A-2 — questions fréquemment posées

A-1 is for full diplomats with diplomatic immunity under the Vienna Convention (ambassadors, counsellors, etc.). A-2 is for government officials of lower rank and international organization staff who are on official assignment but do not hold diplomatic rank. A-2 holders have limited official protections, not full diplomatic immunity.

In limited cases, yes — under the same reciprocal employment agreements that apply to A-1 families. Eligibility depends on whether Korea has a reciprocal arrangement with the official's home country.

A-2 covers staff of international organizations formally recognized by the Korean government (UN, OECD, WHO, etc.). Staff of foreign NGOs not on the official recognition list would need to apply for a different visa category (typically E-7 or D-7).
