Hello everyone.
Dear international students, there is one thing you absolutely must do after moving to Korea: reporting a change of residence!
If you miss this, you may be disadvantaged, so you must do it after moving. In this article, we will learn about the change of residence report that international students must do after moving! 😊
If you are an international student and have moved to a new place, one of the most important things you must do first is to report a change of address. You must visit the nearest administrative welfare center within 14 days of moving and report the change of address. This procedure is essential for legally staying in Korea, so make sure you don’t forget it.
In order to report a change of residence, you need to prepare several required documents. The most basic document required is an alien registration card. You also need documents that can prove your new address. You can prepare these documents such as a lease agreement, a goshiwon contract, or a dormitory occupancy confirmation. In some cases, you may be asked to provide your passport, so it is recommended that you bring it with you in advance.
It is easy to report a change of residence. First, visit the nearest administrative welfare center. When you visit, submit the documents you prepared, and then fill out the change of residence report form. After that, the official in charge will check the documents and process the application. Once all procedures are completed, the new address will be written on the registration card!
In this way, reporting a change of residence after moving is one of the important procedures that international students must follow. It is a simple process, but if you do not report it, you may be disadvantaged, so please be careful.
Have a nice day today~😊
