Just a couple of quick questions my co teacher is uber stressed over an open class and I don't want to bother her at the minute with these questions.

I also done a search and had no joy.

-I believe all I need to do is bring 10,000 won and my passport ?
-Do I need to re-pay for the multiple entry visa (Am 99.9 per cent sure / hopefull that I don't but just don't want to get suprised)?
-Do I need to leave my passport at immigration like the first time around?
-If so, how long does this process usually take as I am taking vacation in July ?

I had to do this in Feb:

You need your passport,
1 or 2 passport photos
10,000 won
a form found at immi

It will take a week, just like last time. You DONT need to leave your passport there this time around.

No repayment needed because that part of your visa is on your passport, not your card.

Glad I'm not the only one. I think it had a lot to do with the lack of capitalization. Ah well... Now I've got the IJ theme song stuck in my head. Embarassed

Damn, I think I've lost mine too. By lost I mean, I went to buy a new phone and they took my ARC card to check it, and they didn't give it back to me. I think he just put it down on the table near him, but not in my hand. Should I try and track it down, or just apply for a new one?

I think they say you need photos, but when I had mine redone they just used the old photo (guess it was in their system), so I wasted 10,000 won for nothing.

I lost my ARC Card a month or so back.

I had to go the police station to report it lost to the police. They will ask you when/where you lost it, and they will ask for your address and where you work.

They print out the report and you have to fill in the form at immigration. Put down you are applying for a new card because it has been lost.

Youll need a new photo and your passport.

Immigration will take your passport, plus a stamp for 10,000 won.

I got my passport and new ARC back two weeks later.
