I am an F visa holder and moved to a new place my employer provides. Do I have to report it to the immigration or another authority?

- Yes, you have to. It should be within 14 days of when you move, or you get fined. You need to file a move-in report to the head of the city(시)/county(군) /district(구), or the head of the immigration service office with jurisdiction over the new place of residence.
- Required Documents
Passport, Residence registration card (거소신고증), Proof of the place of residence (Housing lease contract copy & Confirmation of residence 거주숙소제공확인서), Application
- How to do
(1) In-person application: Visit the General Affairs Division of the city/county/district office (민원실). Fill out the application and submit it along with the other documents.
(2) Online application: E-application is available on hikorea.go.kr. Submit it along with scans of the required documents and pay a filing fee online with a credit card.
