Lost Residence Card in Korea: What to Do

What this estimate includes

Report the loss promptly, protect your identity documents, and confirm replacement instructions with 1345 or the responsible immigration office.

How this helper works

1. This guide organizes publicly available official information and points users to the responsible Korean agency for confirmation.
2. The page does not decide individual eligibility or replace professional advice.

Assumptions

• The user is asking about a situation in Korea and can provide truthful documents.
• Official procedures and opening hours can change, so check the linked agency before action.

Example

If your residence card is lost, note when and where you last had it, check whether it was found, and keep your passport and police report information ready. Example: save the relevant document, list the dates, and ask the responsible agency which route applies.

Limits and cautions

• This guide cannot assess every status, document, nationality, or regional difference. The Korean agency version controls the official process.
