Người đăng: Tohoku Sông Đà Công ty cổ phần - 21/09/2026

For Vietnamese students studying in South Korea, regularly checking the amount of National Health Insurance that needs to be paid and making payments on time are important administrative tasks.

International students holding a D-2 visa are subject to the National Health Insurance system in South Korea. Before making a payment, students can also read the article on health insurance for D-2 international students in South Korea to understand the applicable requirements, premiums and reduction policies.

The National Health Insurance Service (NHIS) provides online services that allow insured individuals to check their insurance information and make payments using a mobile phone. International students can use the NHIS mobile application to monitor their insurance premiums without necessarily having to visit an NHIS office.

  1. CAN INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS CHECK THEIR HEALTH INSURANCE ON A MOBILE PHONE?

Yes.

NHIS provides a mobile application for accessing National Health Insurance services.

Through the application, users can:

  • Check their health insurance information.

  • Check the amount of insurance premiums due.

  • Check their payment status.

  • Pay health insurance premiums.

  • Check any outstanding premiums.

  • Use various other online NHIS services and documents.

NHIS also provides online services for checking and paying insurance premiums through its official systems.

  1. WHAT DO YOU NEED BEFORE CHECKING YOUR INSURANCE?

Prepare the following:

  • A mobile phone currently being used in South Korea.

  • Personal information registered with NHIS.

  • An appropriate identity verification method.

  • A bank account or suitable payment method if you wish to pay immediately using your mobile phone.

The available login and identity verification methods may vary depending on the authentication method you use.

If you cannot log in or complete identity verification on your mobile phone, you can use other NHIS support channels.

  1. HOW TO CHECK THE AMOUNT OF HEALTH INSURANCE YOU NEED TO PAY

Step 1: Open the NHIS application

Download and open the NHIS health insurance application on your mobile phone.

Log in or complete identity verification according to the instructions displayed by the system.

Step 2: Select the insurance enquiry and payment section

After logging in, find the section for checking and paying health insurance premiums.

This is where you can check the insurance premiums that are currently due.

Step 3: Check your premium information

The system displays information such as:

  • The month for which payment is due.

  • The amount to be paid.

  • Premiums that have already been paid.

  • Any outstanding premiums.

NHIS also allows users to check payment notices and the current status of their premium payments.

Step 4: Select the month you want to pay

If there is more than one outstanding payment, select the month or premium you wish to pay.

Depending on the available options, the system may allow you to select regular premiums or outstanding payments.

  1. HOW TO PAY HEALTH INSURANCE ON YOUR MOBILE PHONE

After checking the amount due, you can choose a suitable payment method.

Method 1: Pay through Mobile Jiro

  • Select the insurance premium you want to pay.

  • Select payment through Mobile Jiro.

  • The system will transfer you to the Mobile Jiro payment service.

  • Select your preferred payment method.

Mobile Jiro supports several payment methods, including:

  • Credit cards.

  • Bank transfers.

  • Electronic payments.

  • Certain quick-payment services such as Naver Pay, PAYCO, Kakao Pay, BC App Card and KB Pay.

NHIS currently provides Mobile Jiro as one of the available methods for paying selected insurance premiums through its mobile services.

Method 2: Pay using a virtual account

NHIS also provides virtual accounts for premium payments.

After requesting a virtual account, you can transfer the required amount to the assigned account using Internet Banking or another suitable bank transfer service.

According to NHIS guidance, the virtual account is issued for payment on the same day, and the payment result can be checked after the transaction has been completed.

Method 3: Pay through Internet Banking or Mobile Banking

  1. Log in to your banking application.

  2. Select the section for paying bills or public service charges.

  3. Enter the required payment information.

  4. Check the amount to be paid.

  5. Confirm the transaction.

The menu and payment procedure may vary between banks.

  1. HOW CAN YOU CHECK WHETHER THE PAYMENT WAS SUCCESSFUL?

After completing the payment, do not rely solely on the transaction notification from your bank.

You should check the payment status again through the NHIS system.

In the application, find the section showing your insurance payment results and check whether the transaction has been successfully recorded.

NHIS also provides functions for checking payment history and payment status through its online payment services.

If you pay using a virtual account, NHIS provides payment notifications and payment-status information that can be used to confirm the transaction.

  1. CAN YOU PAY FOR SEVERAL MONTHS AT ONCE?

Yes.

The NHIS payment system allows users to select the premiums they wish to pay. Depending on the available options, you may be able to pay regular premiums or outstanding premiums.

In some cases, you may select all outstanding payments or a specific month.

If you have overdue premiums, check all outstanding amounts carefully before making the payment.

  1. INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS SHOULD PAY ATTENTION TO THE PAYMENT DEADLINE

According to NHIS guidance, the premium for the following month should be paid by the 25th of the current month.

For example, the premium for October should generally be paid by 25 September.

Students should therefore check their monthly payment notices in advance and avoid leaving payments until the last minute.

  1. WHAT SHOULD YOU DO IF YOU CANNOT PAY USING YOUR MOBILE PHONE?

If you have difficulty logging in, completing identity verification or making a payment through your mobile phone, other payment methods may be available, including:

  • Automatic bank transfer.

  • Virtual account.

  • Bank payment.

  • Electronic payment.

  • Card payment at an NHIS branch.

  • Other available electronic payment methods.

NHIS customer service: 1577-1000.

  1. COMMON MISTAKES INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS SHOULD AVOID

  • Not checking the actual amount that needs to be paid.

  • Forgetting the payment deadline.

  • Completing a payment without checking whether it has been successfully recorded.

  • Keeping only the bank transaction receipt without checking the NHIS payment status.

  • Failing to update information when personal circumstances change.

  1. SUMMARY OF THE PROCEDURE

Open the NHIS application → Log in and verify your identity → Check your insurance premium → Select the payment you need to make → Choose a payment method → Complete the transaction → Check the payment result.

Regularly checking your NHIS information can help you manage your living costs and avoid accidentally missing payments or accumulating outstanding premiums.

Important note: The application interface, menu names and identity verification methods may be changed by NHIS from time to time. When making a payment, always follow the information currently displayed in the official NHIS application and on the official NHIS website.
