Entry requirements for South Korea
| Rule | Detail | Source |

| Passport validity | unspecified — Unresolved from primary sources (2026-08-07): Korea publishes no general minimum passport validity for entry. The K-ETA portal requires only a valid passport, and no primary source (K-ETA, Korea Visa Portal, MOFA mission pages) states a 6-month or beyond-stay rule; in practice the passport must remain valid for the stay. | K-ETA (Korea Immigration Service) — Application Guide, Eligible Countries / Applicants · retrieved 2026-08-07 |
| Special Entry Procedure Declaration | K-ETA portal states Korea is under a disaster-situation special entry procedure and all foreigners must report their entry before entering the country.
