Applicant's Declaration:

I declare that the information I have provided in this application is truthful, complete and accurate to the best of my knowledge.

I understand that an approved travel authorization is NOT a visa. It does not meet the legal or regulatory requirements to serve in lieu of a Republic of Korea visa when a visa is required under the law of Republic of Korea. Individuals who possess a valid visa will still be able to travel to the Republic of Korea on that visa for the purpose for which it was issued. Individuals traveling on valid visas are not required to apply for a travel authorization.

I have read and understood the terms of the Republic of Korea Visa Waiver Program. I understand that If my Korea Electronic Travel Authorization (K-ETA) is approved, this approval establishes that I am eligible to travel to the Republic of Korea under the Visa Waiver Program but does not guarantee that I am admissible to the Republic of Korea. Upon arrival in the Republic of Korea, I will be inspected by a Korea Immigration Service officer at a port of entry who may determine that I am inadmissible under the Visa Waiver Program or for any reason under the law of Republic of Korea.

I understand that attempting to obtain an Korea Electronic Travel Authorization (K-ETA) under the Republic of Korea Visa Waiver Program by the willful misrepresentation of a material fact, or fraud, is an offense and may result in the permanent refusal of a Travel Authorization, or adjudicated inadmissibility for entry into the Republic of Korea as well as removal from the Republic of Korea and its territories after entry has been granted based on such willful misrepresentations.

Third Party Authorization:

I understand that I am applying via apply-korea.com, product of UNOBIT LLC; a third-party that is not affiliated with the Republic of Korea, that the third-party cannot guarantee application approval, that the third-party service is offered to help expedite the process, and that I have the option to apply directly with the pertinent government websites. I also understand that my purchase includes a processing and service fee to UNOBIT LLC, which includes the 10,000 KRW non-refundable government fee, required by the Government of Republic of Korea.

I confirm and authorize UNOBIT LLC to assist me, by using their processing service in completing and reviewing my application. I understand and acknowledge that I have not been offered legal advice and that this company or its agents and affiliates have never claimed to be qualified to offer legal advice under any circumstance. I also confirm that I am submitting my application and signing it myself.

By obtaining services from the UNOBIT LLC website I have agreed to the following: | Terms of Service | Privacy Policy |

Agree with Applicant's Declaration.
