Korea Ministry of Foreign Affairs — K-ETA temporary exemption extension (to 31 Dec 2026) mofa.go.kr
South Korea has temporarily exempted this passport from K-ETA until 31 Dec 2026; the visa-free stay itself is permanent.
What to do next
- Check your passport. Make sure it stays valid for at least six months beyond your travel dates, with a blank page for the entry stamp.
- Check for an arrival form. Some destinations ask visa-free visitors to file an official arrival form or digital arrival card. Where one applies in South Korea, it is free on the government's own site — never pay a third party for the form itself.
- Travel — nothing to apply for. There is no visa application for this route. Keep proof of onward travel and your accommodation details handy for the border officer.

What this means
Holders of a Denmark passport can enter South Korea without a visa for short stays. You do not need to apply for anything before departure for the visa itself — border officials stamp you in on arrival. Some destinations still ask for a separate arrival form or travel registration; where an official one exists it is free through the government channel.
Whatever the requirement, your passport generally needs at least six months of validity beyond your travel dates, and border officers can ask for proof of onward travel and sufficient funds. Rules on this page cover ordinary passports and short tourist visits — work, study and long stays follow different rules.
Visa-free does not always mean form-free: some destinations ask visa-exempt visitors to complete an official arrival form or digital arrival card. Where one exists, it is free through the government's own site — you never need to pay a third party for the form itself.
