Understanding the Difference Between Tourist and Business Visas in South Korea

When planning a trip to South Korea, it is essential to understand the difference between tourist and business visas. While both visas allow entry into the country, they serve different purposes and have specific requirements.

Tourist Visa

A tourist visa is intended for individuals who wish to visit South Korea for sightseeing, recreational activities, or visiting friends and family. It is not suitable for engaging in any form of employment or business-related activities.

To obtain a tourist visa, you will need to provide documents such as a valid passport, completed visa application form, proof of accommodation, and a detailed travel itinerary. Additionally, you may be required to show proof of sufficient funds to cover your stay in South Korea.

Business Visa

A business visa, also known as a work visa, is required for individuals who plan to engage in business-related activities in South Korea. This includes attending business meetings, conferences, or negotiations, as well as exploring potential business opportunities.

To apply for a business visa, you will need to submit documents such as a valid passport, completed visa application form, an invitation letter from a Korean company or organization, and evidence of your business activities and purpose of the visit.

It is important to note that a business visa does not authorize employment in South Korea. If you plan to work in the country, you will need to obtain the appropriate work visa.
