Visa Rules Eased for Foreign Graduates
Read it here: http://m.koreatimes.co.kr/phone/news/view.jsp?req_newsidx=173345
South Korea is easing up on visa rules to attract and keep international talent.
Foreigners who have at least a bachelor's degree can get an E-7 (designated activities) visa even if their job has nothing to do with their major. In the past their major had to be related to their job.
The D-10 (job seeking) visa rules have also changed. Foreigners aren't required to have a GPA of 3.0, a national certificate, and recommendation letters from professors anymore. The length of the visa has also changed from 1 to 2 years.
It has also become easier to gain permanent residency.
Foreigners who have earned science or engineering degrees in Korea and have lived in Korea for 3 years and have an income higher than the gross national income are allowed to gain residency.
Foreigners who have earned master's degrees in Korea, have lived in Korea for 3 years, and have an income higher than the GNI are allowed to gain residency regardless of their major.
The government also plans to relax the points-based system for foreigners.
