Yes! Finally! You and I can soon visit South Korea VISA-FREE
Oh, please please tell me this is not a dream! The K-pop fan in me would like to scream I can't help but get excited, K-Wave fans! This is the news we’ve all been waiting for. This 2020, Philippine passport holders will be given VISA-FREE access to cities like Seoul, Busan, and Nami Island – making you one step closer to checking South Korea off your bucket list! However, there’s a catch – so keep on reading!
Last December 12, the Ministry of Strategy and Finance and the Ministry of Justice announced that as part of South Korea’s “Plan for Promoting Foreign Tours,” Philippine passport holders will be permitted to enter major South Korea cities without holding a visa!
However, it is important to note the limitations of this program. Tourists are only permitted visa-free entry in inland areas – Seoul, Incheon, and Busan – for up to five days; and that their final destination be Jeju Island.
This new Visa-Free program also extends to Vietnam and Indonesian passport holders.
