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.
