🇰🇷South Korea🇬🇳GuineaKR-GN South Korea to Guinea visa requirements
South Korean ordinary passport holders need a visa for Guinea, but can apply online for an eVisa (Entry Visa Letter) before travel, with biometrics captured on arrival. Guinea (Conakry, West Africa) is not visa-free for South Korean ordinary passport holders. The country operates an official electronic visa system run by the Police de l'Air et des Frontieres (paf.gov.gn). South Koreans apply online, pay USD 80, and on approval receive an Entry Visa Letter by email. The physical visa is issued at a visa-on-arrival counter on entry, where a photo and fingerprints are captured. The eVisa is single-entry and valid for a short stay of up to 90 days; the standard tourist product is commonly issued for a 30-day stay. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is mandatory for entry, and a valid passport plus a return/onward ticket are required. Guinea is not part of the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply. Because no no-visa channel exists for Korean nationals, the verdict is eVisa. Travelers should apply only through the official paf.gov.gn portal to avoid third-party surcharges; fees are non-refundable even if the application is rejected.
