South Korea has extended its Simplified Tourist Visa Program for Metrobank credit cardholders until Dec. 31, 2025, making it easier for Filipinos to explore their K-drama and hallyu-inspired travel dreams.
The program allows eligible Metrobank cardholders to use their credit card statement of account (SOA) in place of traditional financial documents when applying for a tourist visa. Applicants with Metrobank Travel Platinum Visa, Metrobank World Mastercard®, or Metrobank Platinum Mastercard® only need to submit a Certificate of Employment, a photo of the front side of their credit card, and their past three months’ billing statements to complete the visa process.
This streamlined program not only simplifies visa applications but also offers exclusive perks for Metrobank credit cardholders through Klook. Travelers can enjoy 20 percent discounts on hotel bookings, tours, activities, and flights with specific minimum spending requirements.
In addition, Metrobank’s Big Travel Bonus promo rewards cardholders with up to P20,000 in e-GCs for travel-related expenses, including Klook transactions. This promotion runs until Jan. 15, further enhancing the travel experience for cardholders.
With these exclusive deals and simplified visa requirements, now is the perfect time for Metrobank cardholders to plan their South Korea getaway. Whether it’s exploring Seoul’s bustling cityscape or enjoying the coastal charm of Busan, the program opens up endless possibilities for adventure.
More details about the Simplified South Korean Tourist Visa Program and Metrobank’s travel deals are available on their official website.
