Just a quick question. If my contract finishes August 31st, is it possible to get a extension until say 5th September so i can wire money home/sort stuff out after i finish work? Or do you have to leave the day after? Whats the longest you can extend after your official contract is up?
Thanks in advance for the info! |
As long as you have the air ticket out of Korea you can extend until the date of the flight (up to 30 days past the end of your ARC).
There is no cost and you can do it at your local immigration office OR on-line (but you need to be able to forward or show your ticket out to get the extension).

How do you do this online? And if I do this, what evidence do they provide me to prove I've extended the ARC? If I go there in person, I can see them physically modifying the date on my card and in my passport. But if I do that online, how does that work? |

The link is on the left side of the page.
You fill in the application, show your air-ticket and receipt. (scan and attach/upload if you do it on-line).
They send you a PDF file that you print off (and they have your change noted in the computer) so when you leave you hand in your ARC and your passport scan shows you are still legal.

Awesome. Thanks! |
