ROK TRAVEL REQUIREMENTS:
Beginning April 1 2023, the Korea Electronic Travel Authorization, or K-ETA, is temporarily exempted for 22 countries until Dec. 31, 2024. The United States is included in this exemption. Travelers can still apply for a K-ETA and pay the 10,000 Korean Won fee (about $9) per person if they wish; those who have a K-ETA will not have to submit an arrival card at the port of entry. Those who got their K-ETA approval already can use it until it expires. No refund will be made for people who have already submitted a K-ETA application. U.S. travelers, along with nationals of countries/regions eligible for visa-free entry into Korea, were required to get K-ETA approval to board incoming flights or ships. This change suspends the K-ETA requirement for the U.S. and 21 other countries temporarily. Please refer to: https://m.keta.go.kr/.DoD Civilians, their eligible family members and eligible military family members on official travel using a US passport must have either a Special Issuance Passport (SIP) or, as a temporary measure, a memorandum from a DoD Passport Agent stating the SIP application was submitted prior to departure from the point of origin. The memorandum must identify each applicant, date of submission, country of travel for PCS/TDY /TAD and DoD Visa Passport Automated System (VPAS) ID. After applying for an Official Passport and if it cannot be obtained prior to departure, use of a Regular (blue) Passport in lieu of the Official Passport is permissible for travel via MILAIR, contract and commercial air. Traveler will not be reimbursed for the cost of the Regular (blue) Passport. The Regular (blue) Passport must have sufficient validity to cover the entire travel period. Upon receipt of the SIP, traveler must coordinate with the DoD Passport Agent in country to ensure the proper visa and SOFA Stamp is placed on the SIP within 90 days of arrival in country by ROK Immigration officials. Non-US passport users and non-Korean passport users must comply with ROK requirements. These travelers from a third country must verify and coordinate all passport and visa or K-ETA requirements prior to traveling. In many cases a visa must be obtained prior to travel.

ROK TRAVEL REQUIREMENTS:
Beginning April 1 2023, the Korea Electronic Travel Authorization, or K-ETA, is temporarily exempted for 22 countries until Dec. 31, 2024. The United States is included in this exemption. Travelers can still apply for a K-ETA and pay the 10,000 Korean Won fee (about $9) per person if they wish; those who have a K-ETA will not have to submit an arrival card at the port of entry. Those who got their K-ETA approval already can use it until it expires. No refund will be made for people who have already submitted a K-ETA application. U.S. travelers, along with nationals of countries/regions eligible for visa-free entry into Korea, were required to get K-ETA approval to board incoming flights or ships. This change suspends the K-ETA requirement for the U.S. and 21 other countries temporarily. Please refer to: https://m.keta.go.kr/.DoD Civilians, their eligible family members and eligible military family members on official travel using a US passport must have either a Special Issuance Passport (SIP) or, as a temporary measure, a memorandum from a DoD Passport Agent stating the SIP application was submitted prior to departure from the point of origin. The memorandum must identify each applicant, date of submission, country of travel for PCS/TDY /TAD and DoD Visa Passport Automated System (VPAS) ID. After applying for an Official Passport and if it cannot be obtained prior to departure, use of a Regular (blue) Passport in lieu of the Official Passport is permissible for travel via MILAIR, contract and commercial air. Traveler will not be reimbursed for the cost of the Regular (blue) Passport. The Regular (blue) Passport must have sufficient validity to cover the entire travel period. Upon receipt of the SIP, traveler must coordinate with the DoD Passport Agent in country to ensure the proper visa and SOFA Stamp is placed on the SIP within 90 days of arrival in country by ROK Immigration officials. Non-US passport users and non-Korean passport users must comply with ROK requirements. These travelers from a third country must verify and coordinate all passport and visa or K-ETA requirements prior to traveling. In many cases a visa must be obtained prior to travel.
