South Korean ordinary passport holders can enter eSwatini visa-free for tourism for up to 30 days. No visa or eVisa is required before travel; a visitor's entry stamp is issued on arrival. The Kingdom of eSwatini (formerly Swaziland) grants visa-free entry to South Korean ordinary passport holders for short tourist and business visits of up to 30 days. South Korea is on eSwatini's visa-exemption list alongside Japan, the USA, most EU states and Commonwealth countries. Travelers receive an entry stamp at the port of entry (King Mswati III International Airport or land borders) at no cost. eSwatini is a landlocked southern African kingdom surrounded by South Africa and Mozambique, and is NOT part of the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply. The 30-day permit can be extended by a further 30 days at the Ministry of Home Affairs; stays beyond 60 days require a Temporary Residence Permit (TRP). Visa-on-arrival counters are not currently offered for nationalities that do require visas, but this is irrelevant to South Koreans, who are visa-exempt outright. Standard entry conditions apply: a passport valid for the duration of stay (the official guide specifies at least three months beyond travel; many carriers and travelers apply a six-month buffer), proof of onward/return travel, sufficient funds, and accommodation details. As eSwatini lies within the same malaria and yellow-fever risk region as neighbors, travelers arriving from or transiting a yellow-fever-endemic country may be asked for a vaccination certificate.
