The aim of this change is to simplify entry procedures for certain categories of traveller, particularly younger people.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>K-ETA exemption for minors aged 17 and under<\/h2>\n<p>According to recent changes made by the South Korean Immigration Service, <strong>travellers aged 17 and under are now exempt from the requirement to obtain a K-ETA to enter South Korea<\/strong>. This measure applies regardless of the minor's nationality, provided that he or she is a national of a country eligible for the K-ETA programme.<\/p>\n<h2>Implications for families travelling with children<\/h2>\n<p>These new regulations considerably simplify the procedures for families travelling with children. Here are the main points to remember:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>No application necessary:<\/strong> Parents no longer need to apply for a K-ETA for their children aged 17 and under.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cost savings :<\/strong> The K-ETA exemption for minors saves families the costs associated with this authorisation.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Simplifying formalities :<\/strong> This reduces the preparation time before the trip.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Passport validity :<\/strong> Although the K-ETA is not required, it is important to ensure that the child's passport is valid for the duration of the stay.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Important considerations<\/h2>\n<p>Despite this exemption, there are still a number of points to bear in mind:<\/p>\n<h3>Travel documents<\/h3>\n<p>Although minors are exempt from K-ETA, they must still be in possession of a valid passport. It is recommended that the passport be valid for at least six months after the planned date of return.<\/p>\n<h3>Parental authorisation<\/h3>\n<p>Depending on the regulations of certain countries, minors travelling alone or with only one parent may require parental authorisation. It is advisable to check these requirements with the relevant authorities.<\/p>\n<h3>Other entry formalities<\/h3>\n<p>Exemption from K-ETA does not exempt you from other formalities for entering South Korea. Minors, like adults, may be subject to health checks or other procedures on arrival.<\/p>\n<h2>Comparison with other age groups<\/h2>\n<p>Interestingly, this exemption also applies to another age category:<\/p>\n<table border=\"1\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>Age group<\/th>\n<th>K-ETA status<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>0-17 years<\/td>\n<td>Exempt<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>18-64 years<\/td>\n<td>Required<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>65 and over<\/td>\n<td>Exempt<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2>Prospects for family travel<\/h2>\n<p>The K-ETA exemption for minors aged 17 and under represents a positive development for family travel to South Korea. It is part of a wider trend to simplify entry procedures while maintaining an adequate level of security.<\/p>\n<p>For families planning a trip to South Korea, the new regulations offer greater flexibility and less red tape. However, it is still vital to find out about all entry and residence requirements before departure, as regulations can change.<\/p>\n<h2>K-ETA exemption<\/h2>\n<p>If you are aged between 18 and 64, you should be aware that from April 2023, <strong>22 nationalities\u00a0<\/strong>(including the French and Belgians) are\u00a0<strong>exempt<\/strong>\u00a0of K-ETA until 2025.\u00a0<strong>However, obtaining this document in advance will save you time when you arrive.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since 3 July 2023, South Korea has introduced new provisions concerning electronic travel authorisation (K-ETA) for minors.
