Russia citizens enter Korea visa-free for 60 days (basis: visa-waiver agreement, B-1). A K-ETA (₩10,000, official site only) is required before boarding. Driving licences issued in Russia do not exchange directly, so a Korean licence test is required. 33,268 Russia nationals were in Korea as of the latest MOJ cross-tab, 2024-12-31 (all sojourners, including short-term visitors).
