The E7 (Specific Activity) visa is classified into E7-1 (Professional Worker)/E7-2 (Semi-Professional Worker)/E7-3 (Generally Available Worker)/E7-4 (Skilled Worker)/E7-S (Negative Method Professional Employment). In accordance with Article 16 of the Act on the Treatment of Foreigners (Improvement of Treatment of Foreign Professionals), the central government conducts demand surveys and consultations every year to attract excellent professional personnel. As a result, the E7 visa occupation code was created. The occupation code is created and managed to grasp the status of the introduced occupations, and to produce and analyze statistics on the number of introduced personnel, etc. In the Korean Standard Occupational Classification, numbers are assigned, with three digits indicating sub-classification, four digits indicating sub-classification, and five digits indicating sub-classification. Additionally, there are occupations that have an 'S' in front of the number. These are newly separated or newly created occupations, and are placed in front of codes of similar occupations. ▶E7-1 Occupation Code (67) There are 67 permitted occupations, including 15 managerial and 52 specialist occupations, for which residency status is granted to professional personnel. > 15 job codes for administrators > 52 occupational codes for professionals and related workers ▶E7-2 Occupation Code (9) There are a total of 9 occupations, 5 office and 4 service occupations, for which residence status is granted to semi-professional workers. > 5 office job codes > 4 service job codes ▶E7-3 Occupation Code (8) There are eight occupations for which residence status is granted to general skilled workers, including skilled workers and related skilled workers. > 8 job codes for general skilled workers ▶E7-4 Occupation Code (3) There are three new occupations established in August 2017 as residence qualifications granted to skilled workers. > 3 job codes for skilled workers If no job code matches the one listed above, you must select the most similar job code.
