How to say “When is the assignment due?” in Korean

Ask when an assignment must be submitted.

When is the assignment due?

Check both the date and the submission method if necessary.

Use it in three situations

  1. In class

    과제는 언제까지 내야 해요?gwajeneun eonjekkaji naeya haeyo?

    When is the assignment due?

  2. Checking homework

    이거 내일 제출해야 해요?igeo naeil jechulhaeya haeyo?

    Do we need to hand this in tomorrow?

  3. Planning study time

    몇 시까지 제출해야 해요?myeot sikkaji jechulhaeya haeyo?

    What time is the deadline?

What to watch for

Due describes the submission deadline, rather than when the task began.

Read the whole expression before replacing a detail. The natural wording may use a different order or construction from the English sentence.

A note on speaking Korean

Most examples use polite 해요-style endings. A more formal ending may appear when addressing staff or making a careful request. Do not switch to casual speech with a stranger simply because the English translation sounds friendly.

Hangul is the main text; romanization helps you read along. Korean often leaves a clear subject unstated. Particles and endings carry information that English may express with separate words.
