Securing the E-7 Job Visa

The E-7 Visa is the standard visa for foreign professionals working in South Korea. Getting sponsored requires both candidate qualifications (such as a degree or years of relevant experience) and company validation.

Employer Requirements

  • The sponsoring company must maintain a specific ratio of Korean employees to foreigners (typically at least 5 to 1).
  • The salary must meet the GNI (Gross National Income) requirement.
  • The company must prove the necessity of hiring a foreign professional.
