Immigration to South Korea

Immigration to South Korea can be achieved through various investment options. One such option involves depositing 300 million/500 million/1.5 billion Korean won in a Korean bank (which can be combined with real estate investment). After five years in the F2 stage, individuals can obtain the F5 permanent residency status in South Korea. Once permanent residency is acquired, the deposited funds can be withdrawn without affecting the residency status. The application requirements are lenient, allowing for the inclusion of dependent children beyond the age limit. There are no residency requirements, and the process can be as fast as six working days to obtain the residency status. The investment is flexible, with no management fees during the deposit period, and funds can be withdrawn at any time.
