Went to Seoul from USA in early August and there is now no K-ETA needed and no Q Code either. Just need to fill out the little yellow entry card that they give you on the airplane to get in now.

Was this filmed at terminal 1 or 2? If travelling to Seoul rather than transfer is there a clear path split where you go to immigration/customs rather than international transfer? I have a long layover and wanted to exit the airport to see the city - is this fairly easy to do?
@marutaiwan

Terminal: 1. Yes, if you're traveling to Seoul instead of making a connecting flight, there is a clear path where you need to go through immigration and customs instead of international transfer.

@marutaiwan
@marutaiwan Год назад
If you're traveling from the airport to Seoul Station, the entire process doesn't take much time. The duration may vary depending on the time of your arrival, but generally, it's a quick process. Based on my experience, it took me less than 30 minutes to go through the entire process and another 40 min to arrive to Seoul station. The immigration process at Incheon airport is typically faster compared to neighboring countries like Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, and others.

@marutaiwan

K-ETA (Korean Electronic Travel Authorization) is a travel authorization for entering Korea. Whether or not you need to apply for K-ETA depends on your nationality. However, if you are from the United States, you dont need to apply for it.

Hello, For people who are just have layover in Korea, are they still needed to fill out Q-code and K-eat? Thanks
@marutaiwan
@marutaiwan Год назад
ANSWER FROM THE WEBSITE overseas.mofa.go.kr No. Transfer/transit passengers who are not entering Korea do not need to get a K-ETA. However, If you need to go through check-in process after entering for luggage connection, you need to get a K-ETA. LINK: overseas.mofa.go.kr/us-seattle-ko/brd/m_4709/down.do?brd_id=4149&seq=1346334&data_tp=A&file_seq=2 MY RECOMMENDATION: check with your airline to confirm whether you need to go through the check-in process again while in Korea. Some airlines may require passengers to check in again during transit, while others may not. By checking with your airline ahead of time, you can avoid any confusion or delays during your layover in Korea.

Considering that your ultimate destination is not Korea, but you have a transit in Korea, the requirement for a K-eta visa will hinge upon whether you will undergo the immigration process or not. It is advisable to confirm the precise prerequisites with your airline company.
