Steps to apply for K-ETA that worked for me:
1.) I completed everything but the payment on the official website (photos and everything), because the payment system was broken and accepted none of my cards
2.) Open the app and press apply (don’t worry, it will soon allow you to continue your progress from the website
3.) Agree to their terms and conditions, then input your passport # and email address. After you do this and click “next”, the app will detect your ongoing application on their website and give you the option to continue progress and skip to the payment screen.
4.) From here, all you have to do is pay the application fee. From my experience, only a visa card worked. A mastercard may work (I haven’t tried), but a visa card worked for me (discover card does not work)
5.) done
This app can definitely use some maintenance. As it stands, it is truly a struggle to complete such a simple process due to technical errorsShow lessShoushoushushou
Shameful Incompetence
After spending way too long time trying to apply for my parent K-ETA (i did their application since they don’t speak english and aren’t tech savvy) i finally managed to submit. a day later, i got approval emails. Months later when it was time to check in to their flight it turns out that K-ETA scanned my dad’s passport number incorrectly and while i had an approval, it was not valid for boarding the plane. Cost me $800 to reschedule their flights. No customer service, no recourse, no accountability. Do yourself a favor and avoid Korea. This app can really ruin your travel plans.Show lessfreedombite
Got approved in less than 30 mins
This app has such low ratings but it was very straight forward and user-friendly for my family and I. The passport scans were quick and efficient. The in-app photo booth was very handy as well. We took pictures straight from my iPhone.RaineSolub
