Procedure of Employment via South Korea's Employment Permit System

Employment Permit System is the only legal way through which a foreign worker could land a job in South Korea. This will provide you a guide through the EPS-KLT process.

What is EPS-KLT?

South Korea’s Employment Permit System (EPS) is a government-to-government hiring scheme for foreign workers.

Korean Language Training (KLT) is required under the EPS. Passing the test is required to be included into HRD Korea Job Roster.

First step - Registration for the EPS KLT - done and processed by POEA. Register with the Korean Language Test Registration with non-refundable fee of $ 30. It is on a first-come, first-served basis. POEA will announce the schedule of registration.

Applicants must be:

* Male or Female from 18 to 38 years old
* High school graduate with two years work experience
* College graduate with 1 year work experience
* Physically and mentally fit
* No illegal record in Korea (such as illegal entry or stay; overstaying or run-away)

Upon passing the KLT exam, applicants must submit to POEA the following requirements.

* Original copy of Medical certificate approved physically fit by Medical test centers accredited by POEA and DOH
* Colored scan of passport (clear copy)
* 2 x 2 picture (red background w/ full name tag)
* Application Form from POEA

Applicants must wait for the Results from Human Resource Department Korea. Applicants are given 2 years validity to the Job Roster. Korean employers will choose among the roster of applicants from the online list

Chosen applicant will be contacted by POEA and will be offered a working contract.

Hired applicants should apply for work visa. They will undergo another medical test, a Pre-departure Training from POEA, TESDA, Occupational Health Safety and Health Center, and OWWA.

The worker will shoulder airfares (airplane ticket), work visa fee and other miscellaneous fees.

Note: Passing the EPS-KLT does not guarantee 100-percent employment.
