Visa and entry to Seoul, Korea for surgery
Entry rules depend on your nationality. Many visitors can enter visa-free or with a K-ETA travel authorization, while others need a visa; Korea also issues a medical tourism visa (C-3-3) for treatment. Always check the official sites before booking, and ask Grand if you need a letter confirming your appointment.

Travel insurance
