Parents of international students studying at a local university can work as a seasonal worker during the busy farming season.

The Ministry of Justice has announced on the 25th of February that it will conduct a pilot project for the ‘Seasonal Worker Invitation System for Parents of International Students (D-2)’ from the 26th until the end of the year.

This project allows parents under the age of 55 of international students (with at least 2 semesters of remaining study period) who have studied for more than 1 year at accredited universities located in a non-metropolitan area (excluding Seoul, Incheon, and Gyeonggi-do) to study in the same area (non-metropolitan area) as the university where their son or daughter is studying. This allows workers to work as seasonal workers (based on local government standards).

Parents of students with language training (D-4) qualifications or study abroad qualifications at universities located in the metropolitan area(Seoul, Incheon, Gyeonggi-do) are excluded.

International students must not have violated any domestic laws while staying in the country, and their parents must have no health problems or no criminal records.

Parents of international students who meet the qualifications are said to be issued a 90-day short-term work visa (C-4) or a visa (E-8) that allows them to work for 5 months (up to 8 months when extended).

건강보험
E-9 visa is a non-professional employment visa that allows foreign workers to work in certain industries in South Korea.

E-9 visa holders are required to pay for the National Health Insurance Service 건강보험(NHIS) in Korea, which covers most of the medical expenses.

If the E-9 visa holders do not pay for the 건강보험 NHIS, they may face some losses, such as⤵️

🔼They may have to pay higher fees for medical services, as they will not be eligible for the 건강보험 NHIS benefits.

🔼They may have to pay a penalty for late payment of the NHIS premiums, which can be up to 15% of the unpaid amount.

Therefore, it is advisable for the E-9 visa holders to pay for the NHIS and enjoy the health care benefits in Korea.

I hope this information is helpful to you. 😊

As of January 1,2024
Foreign workers with E-9 visas will be allowed to work at hotels and accommodation businesses in South Korea, as part of the government’s efforts to ease the labor shortage in the tourism sector and promote the recovery of the industry amid the COVID-19 pandemic. This is a new policy that expands the scope of the E-9 visa, which previously covered only five sectors: manufacturing, construction, agriculture, fishery, and service.

While hoping and expecting that the Korean government will implement even more easier policies and regulations for foreign workers as time goes by, But if we look at the current situation and the proposals of employers, it is painful to see that the policies and regulations have been proposed that will hurt foreign workers even more.

Lets hope that our voice will be heard and labor friendly rules and laws will be made and implemented.
