Extend Duration of Stay on your ARC
Foreigners staying in Korea for more than 90 days must make ARC at the immigration office. On the backside of your ARC, Your duration of Stay will be marked in a year unit.
If you register the ARC on the SIM card, you might get the SMS notification when the Duration of Stay expires coming.
It says, " Your Duration of Stay expires soon. If you extend your Duration of Stay at the immigration office, please re-register your DoS to customer service. If you didn't, your SIM card can be suspended. "
Like the notification, when you extend your Duration of Stay, you have to re-register your duration of Stay because 7 mobile does not know your personal plan! If not, your SIM plan will be suspended at the end of your Duration of Stay.
Registering is simple,
1. Take a picture of your ARC front and back (Duration of Stay) on the white background
2. Attach the files and email to support@kimchimobile.com
Done.
When we got your attachment, we will submit your attachment at 7 mobile directly. When it's accepted, we will get you the complete email.
Please make sure that the photo must be clear to read and no light reflection!
