|
|
Hello folks,
Just wondering: I'm going to Italy in Sept for 6 days and I only have a single entry visa. I went to the immigration office in Suwon and he told me that I could leave the country and come back on this visa as it's only a short period of time. For some reason, I think I need to have something more? Or else I'm being paranoid...
All help is welcome. Thanks |

If you have a valid alien registration card it's no problem. You just hand it over with your passport at immigration on departing and arriving in Korea. |

IF you have a valid ARC you are free to come and go for as long as your ARC remains valid.
If you do not have an ARC yet then leaving the country will cancel your visa.
Show your ARC when you come and go. Do NOT hand it in/hand it over and make sure that you get it back with your passport when you come an go. (handing it in when you leave cancels your visa).

single- and multiple-entry visas are not necessary anymore.

that's a weird way of saying you're free to come and go as you please. is there a time-limit that i'm not aware of? |
