Stay: Visa-free visit up to 90 days; approved K-ETA required before travel
Conditions: Thai ordinary-passport holders may visit the Republic of Korea without a visa for tourism and other qualifying short stays of up to 90 days, but must obtain an approved Korea Electronic Travel Authorization (K-ETA) before travel. A traveller whose K-ETA application is refused must obtain the appropriate Korean visa instead. K-ETA approval does not guarantee admission, does not authorise employment or another activity requiring a visa, and the final stay is decided by Korean immigration.
