Seoul Global Center runs a professional consulting service for foreign residents covering legal, corporate, tax, management, labour, visa, property and patent questions, alongside OASIS programme categories including corporation establishment and incubation office support. Its own site publishes the booking method and consulting categories; it does not print fee or eligibility detail beyond the booking form.

Seoul Global Center appears in the broader GSC, Seoul Global Center and KOTRA comparison as the city's settlement centre. Its own site is more specific about what the business consultation service itself actually covers.

Eight named consulting categories

The centre's own site lists professional consulting across eight domains: legal, corporate, tax, management, labour, visa, property and patent. Each is its own booking category. None is a single generic "business advice" session.

Booking is a form, not a walk-in

The centre's own site sends applicants to a Google Form. It is labelled "Professional Consulting" and lists the eight categories beside an "Apply Here" button.

The page fetched here prints no fee. Treat that silence as a description, not a promise of a free session.

OASIS-linked categories named separately

The centre's own site names two more OASIS-linked services beyond the eight general categories. OASIS-8 is corporation establishment support. OASIS-7 is incubation office services.

Both sit apart from OASIS-5, the coaching course covered in the GSC comparison post.

Legal, corporate, tax, management, labour, visa, property, patentGeneral professional consulting, booked by form
OASIS-8Corporation establishment support
OASIS-7Incubation office services
OASIS-5Startup coaching and mentoring (covered separately)

Location and contact, as published

The centre's own page lists its address as Jongno 38, Jongno-gu, 5th floor. It gives phone 02-2075-4132 and an email for OASIS enquiries.

The Seoul Foreigner Portal separately names a Dosin-ro, Yeongdeungpo-gu location, but that is the wider foreign-resident network, not this desk. Confirm the address before you travel.

Seoul Global Center's eight general consulting categories and its two named OASIS-linked services, booked through one form.

Frequently asked questions

What consulting does Seoul Global Center offer?
Its own site lists eight categories: legal, corporate, tax, management, labour, visa, property and patent, booked through a Google Form linked from the site.
Is the consultation free?
The page fetched for this post does not print a fee schedule for the general consulting service. Confirm cost and eligibility when you submit the booking form.
What are OASIS-8 and OASIS-7?
The centre's own site names OASIS-8 as corporation establishment support and OASIS-7 as incubation office services, listed separately from the general consulting categories.
Is this the same as OASIS-5?
No. OASIS-5, the startup coaching and mentoring course, is a separate item covered in the GSC comparison post. This post's consulting categories and OASIS-7/8 are additional services the centre's own site names.
Where is the centre?
The centre's own booking page lists Jongno 38, Jongno-gu, 5th floor. Confirm the current address for your specific booking before travelling, since the wider Seoul foreign-resident centre network lists other locations too.
