E-9 Visa holders are only allowed to transfer jobs 3 times within a 3-year contract period. The main point is that it is impossible to move even once in those 3 years without the permission of the entrepreneur. "The change was made in response to workers trying to move to places like the greater Seoul area, while the population is decreasing in rural regions." Strict control has been done for a long time.

 

E-9 visa holders will only be able to change workplaces within the same region starting from September, according to the Office for Government Policy Coordination on Wednesday. According to the law, local area control has been done again.

 

At this time, the Korean government is asking for your help in reviewing the fact that (1) the employer's permission (2) the frequency of the transfer and (3) the control of the place where the worker can move, which is number (1) in the worker's right to move, can be reviewed.
