Sorry, I did look for the earlier thread but could not find it: hence this new one.

One of the points to come out of that was that it is difficult for non-Koreans to get credit cards here.

Just out of interest I tried this evening and got one. They said that other foreigners would be welcome.

All I needed was my ARC, bank account number and my business registration number (I am self-employed). I think employer's name would be the equivalent question. There seemed to be no question on the form about income.

This is a Lotte Card and the desk is in the Lotte Department store (Myong-dong), in the fountain plaza near Lotteria and line 2 subway station. I think B1 floor.

The other post is here in the FAQ section. I would ask posts add new info here if you have it because this is an interesting topic and the rules change constantly.


Look in the Money FAQ section too.
