How to Fill South Korea Verification Appointment Demand Survey

What the Notice Means

The notice published on September 1, 2026, by the Embassy of the Republic of Korea in Nepal announces a Verification Appointment Demand Survey for 2027 Student Visas.

Crucially, this is NOT an official call for actual document verification appointments or a visa application process. Instead, it is an exploratory data-collection exercise meant to map out how many Nepali students intend to pursue their studies in South Korea for the upcoming 2027 intakes (Spring or Autumn semesters).

Why It Was Given and Its Purpose

The primary purpose of this survey is operational forecasting. Specifically, the Embassy is collecting data to:

• Estimate Student Volume: Accurately gauge the total volume of Nepalese students planning to apply for South Korean student visas in 2027.
• Optimize Operations: Use the findings as a core reference benchmark to plan and streamline future embassy document attestation (notarization) slots and overall visa issuance operations.
• Strategic Advantage: Although it is strictly a demand survey and not a formal visa application, the notice highlights that applicants who fill out the survey correctly might be at an advantage with the Embassy.
