Korean Civil Documents: Where, How Much, How Long
한국어A resident registration extract is free on the government portal and 400 won at a community service centre counter. The same document costs different amounts depending on where you get it, and the answers sit on separate agency sites. This page puts 29 documents in one place with all three routes side by side.
This site is information, not a service that files for you. You collect the documents yourself. We only tell you where to go.
Every figure here was read off an official source page, and each document carries its source link and the date we checked it. Where we could not confirm a figure, the cell stays empty and says so.

How to read this
- Fees and turnaround are the figures printed on the agency page. Some local governments waive fees, so a counter may charge you less.
- A cell marked not confirmed means we could not open the source. We did not guess a value to fill it.
- Rules for collecting someone else's document differ by document. Each agency sets its own proxy form, so we link out instead of summarising.
- Counting rules and the places people get stuck are in the guide.
Data collected on 2026-09-16. Each document page carries its own source URL and check date. When an agency changes its notice, that page is the current one, so every document links out to it.
