Installation Access for Designated Country Personnel (DCP)

Installation Access for Designated Country Personnel (DCP)

Designated Countries are those of counterintelligence concern to USFK in that they may have policies or engage in activities contrary to the interests of the United States. In order to address potential security problems resulting from uncontrolled/unmonitored access to our installation by citizens of designated countries, the access control policy for DCP’s is enforced as follows:

Step 1.  USFK personnel desiring to sponsor (Escort onto the installation) persons from designated countries must submit a Designated Country Personnel Access Request memorandum through their Chain of Command to the organization’s O-5 or equivalent commander. 

Step 2.  Submit the approved unit-level DCP access request to the Pass & Vehicle Registration Offices located in Bldg S-225 USAG-Red Cloud; or USAG-Casey located in Bldg 2440 (Maude Hall) for further processing.  Hours of operation at both facilities are Mon thru FRI 0800-1630; closed on weekends, combined U.S and Korean holidays.  The following procedures apply to DCP access requests:

  • Submit DCP access request memorandum at least 25~30 days prior to the scheduled visit. 
  • Attach a legible copy of the DCP’s passport photo page and ROK immigration visa (e.g. date of entry into the ROK, immigration visa status, and visa expiration date).
  • Request must have specific dates and times of access which must be between the hours of 0600-2200 hours. DCP guests are not authorized on USFK installations over night.

Step 3.  The Pass & Vehicle Registration Office submits the DCP access request memorandum thru the Installation Commander to USFK Provost Marshal (FKPM-S) and USFK J2 for the USFK Deputy Chief of Staff’s approval. 

Step 4.  The sponsor is notified telephonically of when the DCP access memorandum is approved/disapproved.

  • Sponsors may pick up the approved access memorandum from the Office it was requested and be authorized to escort their DCP visitor onto the installation during the specific dates requested.  
  • In instances where the DCP and the sponsor are already married, the sponsor may escort the DCP family member to the ID card issuing facility to obtain a DOD Dependant ID Card provided they present the following documentation: 
  • DCP’s Passport with valid ROK immigration visa
  • Translated marriage certificate. 
  • Copy of approved USFK Form 164 (Report and Certificate of Marriage).
  • Marriage Certificate
  • Copy of DD Form 1172 DEERS Enrollment Form

NOTE:  DCP family members are not granted visitor escort privileges in DBIDS until their sponsor obtains certification from his/her organization security manager that all pertinent DCP personal data has processed through USFK J2.
