You live in North Korea on another passport?

Filing usually still happens from your country of residence, at the post competent for it, but the requirement itself comes from your passport.

Common mistakes
Using an intermediary website that imitates the official portal and charges extra service fees is the costliest mistake: make sure the address belongs to the immigration.gov.ag domain before entering any personal data. Another pitfall is confusing the processing time with the authorised length of stay, which should be checked with the immigration department. Finally, a typo in the passport number or travel dates can block the file, so review every field before submitting.
