- Benefit
- With a single application form, apply at once for nationwide common services (First Meeting Voucher (첫만남이용권), Parental Benefit (부모급여), Child Allowance (아동수당), Home Care Allowance (양육수당), electricity, gas, and heating fee reductions for households with newborns or multiple children, public utility discounts for multiple children, etc.) and local government services (childbirth grants, postpartum care costs, baby supplies, etc.)
- Who is eligible
- The mother herself or her spouse, or a proxy (the birth mother's biological parents or parents-in-law), can apply. Based on the baby's (expected) registered residence address.
- When to apply
- Apply together at the time of birth registration (online birth registration + Government24 (정부24), or in person at the community service center (주민센터)). Apply within 60 days after birth to avoid disadvantage in retroactive payment for Parental Benefit and Child Allowance.
- How to apply
- Online: Government24 (정부24, www.gov.kr) - possible to apply on the same day after online birth registration through the Supreme Court's Electronic Family Registration System (participating hospitals only). In person: eup/myeon/dong community service center (주민센터) at the baby's resident registration address. Before a resident registration number is assigned, submit with it left blank and the official in charge will process it after confirming the number.
- Important notes
- Application deadlines differ by item (Parental Benefit and Child Allowance 60 days, etc.), so it is safest to apply for everything at once right after birth registration. The eligible service items differ by local government.
- Note
- The local government services available differ by region. For the requirements and amounts of each item, see the individual items.
