Common misunderstandings of immigrants landing in South Korea

Common misunderstandings of immigrants landing in South Korea

Because South Korea canceled the label system and changed it into an electronic visa, it is necessary to carry a foreigner's landing card with you for direct flights from China to other cities in South Korea.

Many friends changed their passports when their passports expired. At this time, they must go to Korea to update their passport information within 14 days after entering Korea with a new passport for the first time.

Myth 1: Landing requires going in and out of Korea.

A: There is no need to apply to the relevant departments for entry and exit requirements in Korea. You only need to enter any city in Korea within the specified time to complete the entry requirements.

Myth 2: You have to stay in Korea for a few days before you can return to China.

A: There are no time requirements and restrictions after entry, that is, as long as you have an entry record at the Korean Customs, you can enter the country in the morning and return to China in the afternoon.

Myth 3: The landing time is calculated according to a natural year (11-12/31cycle).

A: The landing time is calculated according to the last time you left.

Those who left the country for the last time on 20 18/ 12/20 can enter the country once before 20 19/ 12/65438 to complete the login requirements.

Myth 4: During the F2 holding period, if you don't log in within the specified time, your identity will not be retained.

A: During the F2 holding period, and the property has not been resold, you only need to provide relevant supporting materials and go through the "re-login" procedure at the Korea Exit-Entry Administration Office to keep the F2 visa, but the time needs to be recalculated.

For example, on 20 1 5 65438+1October 3 1, the original planned F5 visa application time is expected to be February 20201. However, if the login requirements are not completed before 2016 65438+1October 3 1, you need to apply for "re-login" (that is, re-apply for F2 visa), and the application time for F5 visa will be automatically extended for 5 years from the processing time of "re-login".

On the other hand, during the F2 holding period, if the deposit has been refunded, the F2 visa will be cancelled, and the permanent residence refund deposit will not affect the identity.
