|
|
| I have a friend who is teaching in Korea he told me about this website, I'm trying to figure out how long I can stay. 90 days with no visa right? Do I need some sort of visa if I want to stay longer than 3 months? I might leave and check out Japan or China for a bit then come back. Thinking of going to teach after I get my degree, so I want to check Korea out. |

| I wouldn't spend more than 2 weeks here. Use Korea to see other parts of Asia. Each time you leave and come back I think that you get another 90 days. |

Really? That would be sweet then, just taking a quick break off school and want to travel. Seeing as my friend is there and he loves it, figure I'd give it a stay and see how I feel if I want to go to teach or something. |

Can anyone confirm or deny this for me? |

| Depends on where you're from. Americans now get 90 days (started last month.) Canadians get 6 months. |

Yes I'm from the USA, I know they changed it to 90 days(3 months). If I leave to visit other countries and come back though do I get a fresh 90 days or am I on my original 90 day pass still? |

| Every time you leave the country you get a fresh tourist visa when you return. |

| It's true, as long as you don't have an e-2 or some other visa. A tourist is just a tourist, it doesn't matter if your last visit was 2 years ago or 2 days. |
