FAQs
We are monitoring developments in Korea regarding travel restrictions and quarantine. We will update this page as things change.
As of now, the U.S. Embassy and Consulate advises as follows: "All travelers to Korea must provide proof of a negative COVID-19 PCR test result issued within 72 hours of their departure. There is also a mandatory 14-day quarantine upon entry for most travelers. Only those who have been vaccinated in Korea and whose vaccinations are registered in the Korean health care system may be eligible for active monitoring in lieu of quarantine at the discretion of Korean authorities at the point of entry. Beginning July 1, 2021, limited categories of vaccinated travelers may apply for a quarantine exemption certificate at an overseas Korean Embassy or Consulate prior to travel."
