Applications can be filed through the KWVA (Korean War Veterans Association) and Korean embassies (consulates) located in UN allied countries. Accepted applicants (veterans and family members) will be invited by the Korean government to Korea, and supported by the government for attendance at commemorative events and Korean traditional cultural experiences. The MPVA will cover all expenses (lodging, meals, tourist site entrance fees, etc.) during their stay in Korea. Please note that the MPVA will cover 50 percent of the cost of the airline ticket for the veteran and 30 percent for the family member.
