When a family member recorded in a family relations register is not a Korean national, what particulars must the register carry for that person?
General information · Not legal advice
Material to check
The papers to read are the certificate of family relations showing the entries for that person, a copy of the alien registration card or the domestic residence report, and any passport or nationality paper, because the register must show nationality and a identifying number.
These are types of material to look for, not evidence already verified by PRO SE.
Where readings differ
One reading takes the item as a mandatory entry: where the person to be recorded as family is not a Korean national, the register must carry name, sex, date of birth, nationality and the alien registration number, or, for a foreign national who has not registered as an alien, the domestic residence report number or other number prescribed by Supreme Court Rules, so a certificate omitting those fields is incomplete on its face.
Another reading notes that where a foreign national has not registered as an alien, the identifying number is not fixed by this provision but as prescribed by Supreme Court Rules, so the file must show which number those rules required when the entry was made.
Your judgment
If the person recorded has neither an alien registration nor a domestic residence report number, how would the file show which identifying number the register should have carried?
PRO SE does not make this decision or keep a case record on this public site.When to reconsider
We look again if the Supreme Court Rules on the domestic residence report number are changed, or if the provision is amended to add or alter the particulars recorded for a foreign national family member.
