 |
|
Hi
I have a D10 Visa, I want to transfer to an E2 Visa upon return to Korea. I am told (by a recruiter) that Korean Immigration may deny this transfer as I have been traveling outside of Korea while on my D10 Visa.
Is this true? Or, is this BS?
Does Anyone have ANY experience or heard of anyone come across this? |

I'd like to know the answer to this too.
I've heard you're allowed to be outside the country for up to 3 months on a D10. But you never quite know until it happens. |

the d10 has validity of six months but I know if you're outside korea for 90 days you need a new criminal record check. I just want to know if I'm being told a lie by a recruiter, as can't call immigration from outside korea |

IF you have been out of Korea for more than 90 days then yes, they will require you to jump through the same hoops as though you were applying for a new E2.
IF you have only been out for a short time then it is highly unlikely that you would have any problems with immigration.
