BOVF branch
South Korea
A younger British population, largely in work and education, for whom family visas and university fee status are the live concerns rather than pensions.

What matters most here
Every branch works on all eight key issues. These are the ones raised most often in South Korea.
Spouse and Family Visas
British citizens who marry abroad often cannot bring their spouse and children home, because the minimum income requirement is measured against UK earnings they do not yet have.
Higher Education and University Fees
British children raised abroad are routinely classified as international students at UK universities, paying several times the home rate despite holding UK citizenship.
Housing Loan Interest
British citizens living overseas are charged higher mortgage rates on UK property and shut out of most mainstream products, regardless of their income or record.
Guides for South Korea
Country-specific guides for South Korea are planned. This slot is where they will appear — see the Thailand and Italy guides for the format.
