When a foreigner loses their Alien Registration Card (ARC), they must follow the reissuance procedure based on Article 37 of the Immigration Control Act and Article 73 of its Enforcement Rule. Below are the detailed steps, required documents, and important notes.


1. How to Apply for Reissuance

  • Place of application: Visit the Immigration Office (main office, branch office, or district office) with jurisdiction over your residence. (โ€ป Online application is not available.)
  • Applicant: You must visit in person. โ†’ Reissuance due to loss cannot be done by a representative.
  • If you have not registered your fingerprints before, fingerprint registration will be done during the visit.

2. Required Documents

  1. Original passport
  2. One standard-size photo (3.5 cm ร— 4.5 cm)
  3. Integrated Application Form (Form No. 34)
    • Can be downloaded from the Immigration Office or HiKorea website (www.hikorea.go.kr)
  4. Fee: 30,000 KRW
    • Payable in cash; revenue stamp is not required.
  5. Proof of residence (if applicable)
    • Required only if your reported address has changed.

3. Reporting Deadline & Penalties

  • The previous rule requiring reporting within 14 days of loss was abolished after the Immigration Control Act revision on Feb. 18, 2020.
  • However, it is still recommended to report the loss without delay. Long delays may lead to administrative disadvantages (delayed processing, administrative review, etc.).

4. Processing Time & Card Collection

  • Processing time: Approximately 2โ€“3 weeks (due to outsourcing to the National Mint)
  • How to receive the new card:
    • It can be mailed to your registered residential address, or
    • You may collect it directly at the Immigration Office.

5. Important Notes

  • If the reason for the loss is found to be false, penalties or criminal charges may apply under Article 98 of the Immigration Control Act.
  • If any registration details such as address, passport number, name, etc. have changed, you must submit a Change of Registration Details Report together with the reissuance application.

Administrative Consultantโ€™s Advice

Your Alien Registration Number does not change after reissuance. To prevent issues in the future, keep a scanned copy (front and back) of your ARC in a secure location.
