Australia citizens enter Korea visa-free for 90 days (basis: unilateral designation, B-2). K-ETA is currently NOT required (temporary exemption through 2026-12-31). Driving licences issued in Australia do not exchange directly, so a Korean licence test is required. 19,430 Australia nationals were in Korea as of the latest MOJ cross-tab, 2024-12-31 (all sojourners, including short-term visitors).
