What the Eswatini visa rules mean for South Korea travellers
South Korea citizens can enter Eswatini without a visa and stay for up to 30 days. You only need a valid South Korea passport at the border; immigration officers may still ask for a return or onward ticket, proof of accommodation and enough money for your stay. The 30-day limit usually counts calendar days from your arrival, so book your return flight inside that window.
