Employment and job training

Foreigners can be employed depending on their purpose of entry as stated on their visa. Marriage immigrants who entered Korea with F-6 visas have a legal right to work. To determine whether your visa allows you to work in Korea, visit HiKorea (Foreigner Information Center, www.hikorea.go.kr) or call 1345 (do not use a telephone exchange number).
