The Law on Employment (amended) stipulates the transfer of place of benefit, suspension, continuation, termination and cancellation of unemployment benefits in Article 41.

Accordingly, during the period of receiving unemployment benefits, employees can change the place of receiving unemployment benefits when needed.

However, employees receiving unemployment benefits will have their unemployment benefits suspended if they do not notify their monthly job search as prescribed.
