Community rules
A few short rules that keep the forum and comments useful and pleasant for everyone.
Last updated:
What we hope for
- Be polite. Everyone was a first-time visitor once.
- Give context. Say when you are going to Korea and what you have already checked, so answers can be specific.
- Name your source. For entry rules, prices or regulations, say where and when you got the information.
- Honest reviews. Clinics, shops, products: write only what you actually experienced. No reviews in exchange for gifts or discounts.
What gets removed
- Spam, promotion, selling or hidden advertising (including visa agents, personal shoppers and clinic brokers).
- Hate speech, harassment or personal attacks.
- Personal information: phone numbers, passport numbers, addresses, social media accounts, photos of your or anyone else's documents.
- Arranging to meet in person or exchange private contact details.
- Deliberately misleading information, or encouraging anything illegal in Korea or your home country (for example working on a tourist entry).

Posts with links automatically wait for a moderator before they appear. Links to official pages (embassies, immigration, transit operators) are usually approved.

Click "Report" under a post that breaks the rules. Posts reported by several people are hidden automatically until a moderator checks them.
Deleting your own post
You can delete your own posts with the "Delete" button in the same browser you wrote them in. If you switched devices, send a deletion request through the contact page.
Note
Answers on the forum are personal opinions. For anything important, such as entry rules and visas, always confirm with a Korean embassy or consulate, the K-ETA website or immigration.
