    • Medical tourism visa to South Korea

    A medical tourism visa to South Korea is granted to foreign patients who wish to enter South Korea for medical treatment or recuperation or a caregiver of the patient and is valid for 90 days from the date of issuance (single and double entry; make sure your visa covers your travel dates) or 1-5 years for multiple entry. Nationals from countries eligible for Electronic Travel Authorisation may apply for K-ETA instead.

    Travellers who are seeking entry into South Korea must submit their visa application through a travel agent appointed by the Embassy. Global Singapore has been appointed by the South Korean Embassy to submit visa applications on the applicant’s behalf.
