K-ETA is for nationals of visa waiver countries and regions and designated visa-free countries and regions. Please check if you are a K-ETA eligible national through [K-ETA Application Eligibility Guide] under the [K-ETA Guide] tab.

If the country/region you are looking for is not on the list, please contact the Embassy or Consulate of the Republic of Korea located in your jurisdiction for entry procedures.

You may upload the photo wearing religious clothing for religious purposes. However, the face of the applicant (from the forehead to the chin) should be shown clearly.

No. You need to choose the one that best describes your employment status at the time of applying. Even though your occupation has changed after you got K-ETA approval, you do not need to re-apply.

Please contact the card company if a 3DS (payer authentication) error message appears when you are making the payment.

If you renewed your passport due to modifying the name, passport loss/renewal, etc, you need to re-apply for K-ETA even if you had approval for the previous passport.

The passport used on the boarding pass, the one you will be using to enter Korea, and the one used in the K-ETA approval must all be the same. Therefore, please use the same passport in the circumstances mentioned as above.

K-ETA is no longer required for visa-free travelers who are 17 years old or younger, and 65 years old or older when they are entering the Republic of Korea.
