Getting a new passport while living in Korea is normal, but many residents forget the immigration side of it. Your visa status may continue, but your passport information in immigration records must stay accurate, and passport validity can directly affect how much stay period immigration grants you on extension or status-change filings.

Your passport number, issue date, and expiry date are core immigration record items. If you renew your passport and never update immigration, you can run into trouble later when extending your stay, reissuing your ARC, proving status, or passing identity checks that compare your old immigration record against your new travel document.
Under the stay manual, immigration generally grants stay periods within the passport validity period. That means a short-validity passport can shorten an otherwise normal extension approval. There is a limited one-time exception discussed in the manual for passports with under 6 months left, but that is a fallback, not the ideal filing strategy.
Bring the new passport, the old passport if you still have it, your ARC, and any required update form or appointment confirmation. If you renewed through your embassy in Korea, keep any embassy-issued confirmation pages as well. Update the record promptly instead of waiting until your next major immigration filing.
If your passport is close to expiry and you plan to extend or change status soon, renew it first whenever timing allows.
Keep the old passport until your immigration record and other Korean systems are fully updated.
After immigration, consider whether your bank, telecom provider, employer, and school also need the new passport details.

签证流程
外国人登录证 (ARC / 외국인등록증)
外国人登录证（ARC）是韩国向在韩停留91天及以上的外国人发放的官方身份证件。办理银行开户、手机签约和使用大多数公共服务时均需出示此证。
签证流程

签证流程
签证延期（체류기간 연장）
签证延期——韩国出入境法中正式称为"停留期间延长"（체류기간 연장）——允许外国人在当前签证或外国人登录证到期后继续合法留在韩国，无需出境。
签证流程
体留资格变更（체류자격 변경）
体留资格变更允许已在韩国的外国人在不出境的情况下从一种签证类别转换为另一种——例如，毕业并就业后从D-2留学签证变更为E-7特定活动签证。
Do I need a new visa sticker after I get a new passport?
Not always in the old paper-sticker sense, but you do need your immigration record to match your current passport information. The exact handling depends on your status and the type of record update needed.
Can I travel with my new passport before updating immigration in Korea?
You may be able to travel, but mismatched records can create complications. Update immigration as soon as possible and do not wait if you have a major filing coming up.
What if my old passport containing the visa has already been canceled?
Bring both the canceled old passport and the new passport if you still have them. Immigration usually cares about continuity of identity and record matching, not just the validity of the old booklet itself.
