Hello, I want to apply for a D4 visa extension but my attendance is of 75%, will that be a problem or get my visa extension declined? Would I have to submit a financial statement?
How can i get d4 visa and it’s legal or eligal at south korea.?
How to get it depends on your country’s regulations and there is no such thing as an illegal visa.
Thank you 12AM~
You’re welcome ^^
Hi that’s a very helpful post you’ve made ! But a bit old now maybe, I suggest you to edit once and say that we need to book an appointment on hi korea website beforehand, or Immigration staff won’t see us. And to do it very early (right now it’s overbooked for at least 3 weeks). ๐
Hi, I’ll edit the post soon, thanks for your input!
I just extended my visa, and they didn’t ask for any financial statement. I think it depends on the employee and also (sadly) on the country you come from, and your attendance percentage.
As a European, with 100% attendance, they didn’t think the financial statement was necessary ^^
My many days,weeks or moths of extension can someone get if she/he apply for D4 visa Extension
It depends on how much time left for your course at school but usually it will be from 6 months to 1 year.
Hello everyone ….currently i am learning korean language in yonsei uni…i have complted my 6 months here but now i want to change my university…but my attandance is 62%…what can i do know…can i get addmission in any other university??
There is no way to be sure unless you apply for another university and see what happen.
Your attendance now sure does matter if you try to extend your time at Yonsei, but if you apply for another university they might not even check on it I think.
Hy guys can you please tell me that D2 visa holder can change his/her visa status to D4?if possible what are the requirements?
Hi! Thanks for the info, i found it very useful.
The question might seem obvious but no one could give me a solid answer. I was wondering, do i necessarily have to enrol to another course in order to extend my D4 visa? Or can I extend only my stay without having to attend classes again?
Thank you!
Sorry but you can’t since D4 visa is for studying. You need to turn in your school papers when extend your visa and they will only give you enough time to finish the course.
The required document list and explanations are sooo helpful thanj you so so much โก but I have a question if I study for two terms (I’m planning to take two terms of korean course at soongsil univ(that equal 4 months right? )if I’m accepted can I apply for d-4? And then take a break during the resting 2 month of visa and then extend the d-4 visa?is that possible?
It depends, but usually you will have like a month or so break time between 2 terms equal almost 6 months, so most of the time students that apply for 2 terms are granted d-4 visa

Thanks for sharing this! But do I have to leave my passport with them or no? And how long does it take to extend the visa? Thank you again~! ^^V
It takes 5 minutes you can have your ARC back right away.
Hi^^ thank you for the info!
If I stay in Goshiwon, what should I provide as a Proof of Residence?
Your rent agreement of course, or just ask the landlord they must know better ๐
Thanks for the fast reply ๐
Btw, do you also need it when you apply ARC for the first time?
or is it only for Visa extension?
I’m not so sure sorry >__< Because we had our school deal with ARC when we first arrived so I never looked into that
Hi! Thanks for the useful info ^^ This is the 2nd time I need to extend my D4 visa but the first time my Chinese consular in my school helped me to do everything so I don’t actually know all of this. I have been staying in Korea for almost 1 year, but my korean is still not good enough so I decided to take 1 more semester. I want to ask if I need to prepare extra documents? my attendance percentage is almost 90% so I don’t need to give Financial statement, right? I wrote on my original plan that I plan to study for 1 year so I’m kind of worried it will be hard for me to do the visa extension this time T_T
Hi,
When I extended my visa I just handed in the financial statement anyway even though my attendance was higher than 70%.
So I suggest if you can then just bring the statement anyway, if you cannot I think it’ll be fine too.
Don’t worry I have friend who planned to stay for only 6 months but then added another 6 months and no one questioned anything. Actually when you’re already in Korea the visa extending process is quite simple and fast too ๐
Hi~~ thanks for the info..are the required docs the same if ill be transferring to other university? Thanks again~
The obove required documents list is from the Immigration Office so I’m pretty sure it’s the same for every where in Korea ๐
