<h1>K-Visa work permit expands entry and stay rights for global science and technology professionals, easing employer sponsorship requirements.</h1> China declined to comment on a US H-1B fee increase while announcing a new K-Visa aimed at attracting young science and technology professionals without requiring a domestic employer invitation. The K-Visa will be added to ordinary visa categories, providing greater convenience on entries, validity, and stay duration, and permitting participation in education, cultural exchanges, science and technology activities, entrepreneurship, and business; the change accompanies expanded visa-free short-term tourist entry.
