Internship report by Rand


What is the K-ETA?


The Korea Electronic Travel Authorization is for visa-free foreign visitors who want to enter South Korea. It is a newly introduced visa directed to 112 countries that concluded an agreement with the Republic of Korea. You should apply to the K-ETA 24hours before your departure date, and It costs 10,000 (around $8). Please, don't forget to renew your passport before as it is essential to apply to the K-ETA.


For how long?


The K-ETA is valid for 2 years from the day of the authorization. This means you can go back and forth to Korea whenever you want until the end. Be mindful of one piece of information: you can't stay for longer than 3 months (90 days) in a row. Therefore, you have to leave Korea after the 3 months period and come back again for 3 months. You can do it whenever you want during these 2 years.
