F-4 is the Overseas Korean visa (재외동포) for former Korean nationals and their lineal descendants.

What the F-4 visa lets you do

  • You can work almost anywhere without sponsorship.
  • Simple manual labour jobs (단순노무) on the Ministry of Justice list, such as delivery and cleaning, are not allowed on F-4, except in some areas with shrinking populations. The list was revised in February 2026, and some jobs, such as construction labour and manual packing, were removed from it.
  • Since February 12, 2026, the H-2 visa is folded into F-4, so Korean-Chinese and Goryeoin qualify on the same terms.

652 live jobs at companies that our read expects to hire people who already have the right to work in Korea, such as F-2, F-4, F-5 or F-6 holders.

Common questions

Can I also apply to jobs that usually use the E-7 visa?

Yes. If your visa already lets you work, the employer does not need to sponsor you, so roles that usually hire on E-7 are open to you too. This list shows only the jobs whose posting points to people who already have work rights.

Which jobs can I not take on F-4?

Simple manual labour jobs on the Ministry of Justice list, such as building cleaning, parcel and food delivery, waste collection, apartment security and parking management, plus work in gambling and adult-entertainment venues and a few listed jobs such as golf caddy. Construction labour and manual packing were removed from the list in February 2026. People living in some areas with shrinking populations are exempt from the simple-labour limit. Check Ministry of Justice Notice 2026-65 before you accept a manual job.

Can my spouse work if I hold F-4?

A spouse without Korean heritage and your minor children get the F-3 dependent visa, not F-4. F-3 does not include free work rights: your spouse needs a permit from immigration before taking a job.

How fresh are these listings?

Pulled from each employer's career page every day. Listings that disappear from the source are marked expired within 24 hours.

How does Seoulstart decide if a role is 'English-friendly'?

Each posting is classified by its language signals: JD language, explicit Korean-fluency requirements, foreign-team mentions, sponsorship language, and the company's track record of hiring foreign workers. Roles that look Korean-only fall below our threshold and don't surface here. The classification is Seoulstart's read of the public JD; always verify language requirements directly with the recruiter.
