South Korea has officially announced new employment opportunities for 7,200 Nepali workers under the Employment Permit System (EPS) for the 2026 recruitment cycle. The announcement offers another significant opportunity for skilled and motivated Nepali job seekers seeking legal employment in South Korea.
According to the official recruitment notice, the available quotas are distributed across several sectors:
- Manufacturing: 5,000 workers

Applicants must complete the EPS-TOPIK Korean language examination and successfully pass the required skills and competency assessments before being considered for employment. The recruitment process is conducted under the government-to-government Employment Permit System, ensuring transparency and legal protection for migrant workers.
The EPS Korea Section Nepal has also issued several notices regarding language tests, skills assessments, and departure schedules for successful candidates. Applicants are advised to carefully follow official announcements and prepare all required documents before the application deadline.
At ManpowerEU, we encourage all aspiring candidates to prepare thoroughly for the Korean language examination, verify information through official government channels, and avoid unauthorized agents or fraudulent recruitment offers.
