발급받다 (balgeupppattta, "get issued") combines 발급 (balgeup, "issuance") with 받다 (ppattta, "receive"), showing that the subject receives something issued by an institution.

Usage tips

  • When a bank or government office is the subject, a different verb describes issuing the card or document rather than receiving it.
