Question:
After reemployment sojourn (6-yrs or 4yrs & 10mos), pwede pa ba makakabalik ng Korea? by dave on Fri Jun 04, 2010 2:44 pm
Mga Kabayan,
First of all, I am sorry for making you confused about this topic considering my previous posts.
Actually the NLCC National Labor Consultation Center) through its website has posted new announcement just today stating that "IT IS STILL ALLOWED TO APPLY BACK TO KOREA UNDER SAME E-9 VISA (EPS) EVEN AFTER THE 2ND SOJOURN IS EXPIRED OR AFTER REEMPLOYMENT".
This would imply that their previous statement saying "ONLY ONE TIME REEMPLOYMENT IS ALLOWED" was wrong.
More so, the NLCC has sent new answer to my previous question confirming that their previous answer about "one time reemployment" is wrong.
Please refer below their series of answers to my questions...
Question: How long can an EPS worker may apply back to Korea under EPS?
Dear NLCC,
I am asking for my friend working under EPS. He is from Philippines. He is working in korea under E9 visa for almost 5 years. After finishing my visa how long can he apply back to korea under same visa?
Your prompt reply is highly appreciated.
Thank you.

Question: Reenter korea under EPS
Dear Sir,
I have received one of your answers here about reentering korea under EPS.
You said that under the current EPS if a foreign worker completes the second sojourn period, he/she can not reenter Korea under same visa (E-9 visa).
But how about this statement on Foreign Workers Employment Act under Article 18?
It is said as below:
Article 18 (Restrictions on Employment)
(2) A foreigner who has left after having been employed in Korea shall not be reemployed pursuant to Article 8, if six months have not passed since the date of his/her departure
Does it mean it is not aplicable anymore? Your prompt reply is higly appreciated.

Dear Dave,
This is the National Labor Consultation Center.
Please find our reply to your question as follows:
Sometime there are some foreign workers who give up working in Korea and come back to their home country during the first sojourn period or who are not reemployed after completion of the first sojourn period. That provision shall be applied to those foreign workers.
We want to say again "Under the current EPS, reemployment chance is only one time."
For more information, please call us at 031-345-5000.

Dear Dave,
We are very sorry for our previous answer about reemployment policy. Our apology for not giving you the correct answer. Now we are sending you the updated one and please disregard our previous answer.
According to Article 18 (2) of the act on foreign workers' employment (Restrictions on Employment), a foreign worker who has left afer having been employed in Korea shall not be reemployed, if six months has not passed since the date of his/her departure.
So after reemployment, during your working period, due to unavoidable reasons, if you have to come back to your country, after 6 months, you may take employment procedures from the begining, taking KLT, again.
As a result, if an Korean employer chooses you among many candidates on job roster as a worker through job-maching done by the job center, you may enter Korea.
Thank you for your understanding.
Best regards,
NLCC
