How to get it
Write a dated account and attach official evidence relevant to the request, such as medical records, case documents, a cancellation notice or travel disruption. A statement alone does not establish eligibility.
Confirm the exact subtype and current notice with HiKorea / 1345; name both your current and requested status.
Check the receiving office, online availability, appointment, fee, originals/copies, translations and authentication before obtaining documents.
Submit through the official service. Keep the receipt, answer requests for more evidence and check the decision. A checklist tick is preparation, not approval.
Checked against the linked official sources on the date above, including HiKorea’s 6 November 2026 manual. A family-level route is not every subtype’s final checklist. Penalties shown are legal maxima for the stated violation, not predicted charges. Official notices and individual immigration instructions take precedence.
Checked the 261106 stay manual. Open the 체류민원 attachment and search your status/subcode and procedure. Later laws/notices and individual instructions take precedence.
