Health insurance requirements for South Korea long-stay visas

1 of South Korea’s 1 tracked long-stay visas require health cover. The figures and conditions below are transcribed from the sources listed on each visa page.

F-1-D Workation Visa

Minimum cover: ₩100,000,000 — minimum coverage for the whole stay in Korea, roughly USD 76,000

  • Policy must cover hospital treatment in Korea AND evacuation/repatriation to the home country (본국후송) - a policy that says only 'medical evacuation' is a documented rejection trigger
  • Certificate of insurance subscription is a listed required document at the visa-application stage, not something you can add after arrival
  • Each family member on a dependent application has to be named on the policy with the full coverage amount in their own right
