Work Visa Question
Post New Topic

Hi, does anyone know if it's possible to apply for a work visa when outside of your home country? For example, I have a British passport and I'm currently living and working in China but I want to get a teaching job in South Korea in the future.

Would I have to return to the UK to apply or could I just go to a South Korean consulate in China or maybe another country?

I only ask as I was able to do this with my Chinese Z visa whilst on a tourist visa in Thailand and wondered if I could do the same again.

Thanks.

Recent experience for U.S. citizen in Korea on tourist visa, applied for jobs in Korea: lots of paperwork required from US, but not required to physically return to US. However, all are required to pick up the visa from a Korean consulate (i.e. outside Korea). It is efficiently automated, but...depending on the consulate, they may keep your passport 1-3 days.
