According to the updated regulations, quarantine for Inbound Travelers to South Korea is now exempted.
Following is a part of updates on quarantine regulation.
Please read it for your reference.
“From 21 MAR 2022 (Monday), all inbound travelers to South Korea who are fully vaccinated overseas and have a valid registration are exempted from 7 days quarantine. From 1 APR 2022 (Friday), all inbound travelers to South Korea who are fully vaccinated overseas but do NOT have a valid registration are also exempted from 7 days quarantine. Exemption for quarantine applies to those who are 14 days after vaccination and within 180 days of second vaccination (one vaccination for Janssen) according to the World Health Organization (WHO) emergency approval vaccination completion criteria. There are 10 WHO emergency approved vaccines: Pfizer, Moderna, AstraZeneca, Janssen, Novavax, Sinopharm, Sinobag, Kobe Shield, Kovacs, Kovovacs.
If you have vaccinated in Korea or have already registered your vaccination history in Korea after being vaccinated overseas, your history of vaccination in Q-code is automatically linked through the COOV system. If you completed vaccination but have not registered in Korea yet, quarantine exemption can be applied from 1 APR 2022 by entering the vaccination history directly to the Q-code and attaching your vaccination certification.
The use of the quarantine transportation network (quarantine taxis, KTX-designated section, etc.) will be suspended from 1 APR 2022, considering the burden of governments due to the domestic quarantine situation, and all inbound travelers will be allowed to use public transportation.
Among the current 3 COVID tests conducted for all inbound travelers (before entering the country, the first day of entering the country, and the 6-7 days after entering the country), the rapid antigen testing is allowed for the last test (6-7days after entering the country).
However, considering the risk of each country and domestic quarantine situation, countries with high risk are subject to quarantine even if they have completed vaccination. The 4 countries excluded from quarantine exemption are Pakistan, Uzbekistan, Ukraine, and Myanmar.”
All matters related to entering South Korea, such as entry procedures and necessary documentation will be changed.
Please keep an eye for updated guidance.
