Do Mexico passport holders need a visa for South Korea?

Yes — an eVisa, applied for online and approved before you travel. Filing the Korea e-Arrival Card online ahead of time is optional — it is free on the official site, and the paper arrival card is still accepted at the counter.

Policy

E-Visa

Max stay

90 days

  • The official form is free, on the government’s own site.
  • Automation we built fills in your K-EAC under your supervision — you review it, change anything, and submit it yourself.
  • A credit is charged only after the official government site confirms it has your submission.
  • Your passport and trip details never leave your device — we have no way to read them; the one exception is the passport photo you choose to scan, which passes through a recognition service once; we keep no copy of it.

Your next step

An eVisa is applied for and approved in advance — leave time for it, and carry the approval with you.

The K-EAC — what it means for you

Your visa does not cover the arrival card — Korea asks visa holders for one too, as the Korea e-Arrival Card filed online in advance, or on paper at the counter.

First time filing it? The full guide covers who is exempt, the exact window, and fixing mistakes — read the K-EAC guide.
