E-7 근무처 변경·추가

You hold an E-7 (specialized activity) visa and want to move to a new employer or add a second one — but the visa is tied to a designated job and company.

빠른 답변: E-7은 지정된 직종·근무처에 연동됩니다. 근무처 변경·추가 시 원칙적으로 변경일로부터 약 15일 내 허가(또는 신고)를 받아야 하며, 신규 직무·사업장·임금 요건을 충족해야 합니다.

한국 법의 내용

  1. ·E-7 status is granted for a specific occupation and, in practice, a specific workplace approved by Immigration.
  2. ·Moving to a new employer, or working for an additional one, requires change/addition-of-workplace permission (근무처 변경·추가 허가); some cases are report-only, but you must still notify Immigration.
  3. ·The new employer must be eligible — valid business registration, tax compliance, and (for many E-7 codes) an acceptable ratio of Korean to foreign employees — and your new job must fall within your approved E-7 occupation.
  4. ·A minimum salary criterion applies (commonly benchmarked to national income figures); a job that pays too little or does not match your qualifications may be refused.
  5. ·You should apply within the deadline (commonly within 15 days of the change) via HiKorea or your Immigration Office. Working for a new company without the required permission is a violation that can lead to cancellation.

  4. 4Do not start the new job before approval when permission (not merely a report) is required.
