Is there a visa for digital nomads in Korea?

Currently, there is no specific "digital nomad visa" in South Korea. However, there are several options for digital nomads who wish to live and work in the country.

 

Tourist Visa

One option for digital nomads is to enter South Korea on a tourist visa, which allows stays of up to 90 days. This option does not allow for working in South Korea, and digital nomads would need to leave the country before their visa expires and then re-enter to continue their stay.

 

Working Holiday Visa

Another option is to apply for a working holiday visa, which is available to citizens of certain countries between the ages of 18 and 30. This type of visa allows for stays of up to 1 year and allows the holder to engage in paid employment while in South Korea.

Employment Visa

For digital nomads who have secured a job offer in South Korea, they can apply for an employment visa. This type of visa is valid for up to three years, and it allows the holder to work in South Korea for the duration of the visa.

 

Entrepreneur Visa

 For digital nomads who wish to start their own business in South Korea, they can apply for an entrepreneur visa. This type of visa is valid for up to one year, and it allows the holder to start and operate their own business in South Korea.

 

It's worth noting that the requirements and application process for each type of visa can vary, and it's advisable to check with the Korean embassy or consulate in your home country for more information on the specific requirements and application process for the visa that you are interested in.

In terms of the COVID-19 pandemic, the South Korean government has implemented various quarantine measures for travelers entering the country. As the situation is constantly evolving, it's advisable to keep track of the latest information and guidelines on the Korean government's website.
