Incheon Free Economic Zone Authority, Foreign Resident Settlement Support Services... "From Living Information to Professional Counseling"
The Incheon Free Economic Zone Authority will pilot a customized settlement support service for foreigners who have relocated to Incheon starting next month.
The 'Incheon Free Economic Zone (IFEZ) Foreigners Settlement Support Service' aims to provide essential living information for foreigners during their initial settlement and assist them in adapting to life in Korea. The service targets individuals, families, and corporate personnel newly settling in Incheon.
A total of five households will be recruited to receive customized services. Citizen honorary diplomats of Incheon will act as supporters, providing one-on-one assistance to foreigners for four sessions, each lasting four hours.
The customized service includes living information such as housing, administrative procedures related to visas and resident registration, public transportation use, mobile phone activation, and bank account opening, as well as Korean language education, cultural adaptation, and counseling on daily life difficulties.

It will also guide foreigners to community activities and networking programs to support social adaptation during the early settlement period.
