Turkey entry requirements for South Korean citizens
Short answerSouth Korean citizens can visit Turkey without a visa. Up to 90 days in any 180-day period.
- How long you can stay
- Up to 90 days in any 180-day period.
- What you need
- Passport valid for at least 60 days beyond the length of stay in Türkiye (Law No. 6458 Art. 7.1(b))
- Good to know
- MFA's country list states this exemption as "up to 90 days" without repeating the "180-day period" wording used for some other nationalities on the same page; applied here under Türkiye's general 90-days-in-180-days visa-exemption rule (Law No. 6458), which the same MFA page states explicitly for other exempt nationalities (e.g. United States, Canada, Australia). See data/UNVERIFIED/TODO.md for this caveat.
Is your passport valid long enough?
