Korea Visa and K-ETA Help from Thailand
Your passport decides your route: K-ETA online, or a full visa. A K-ETA can be refused with no reason and no appeal. We work out which service fits your trip and put a documented application in front of an officer who reads it.
- We confirm K-ETA or visa for your passport
- K-ETA refusals addressed openly in a visa application
- Your timeline told straight away if flights are booked
Our fee per applicant. The Korean visa fee depends on your nationality and is paid separately.
Tell us your situation. We explain the next steps and the price. Sending a request is free.

What customers say about working with us
After reaching out to about four local visa agencies in Thailand, Thai Kru stood out as the most legitimate and honest... They kept in touch and explained everything.
If you are looking for assistance with getting your visa and want someone who is responsive and helpful, then look no further than Thai Kru! Everything went so smoothly throughout the entire process.
From start to finish I received full support. They were very well informed and reassured me and reviewed documents as many times as needed.

What if I'm…
…refused a K-ETA?
We apply for a tourist visa with full documents and address the refusal openly.
…visiting family in Korea?
A family visit visa may fit better than a tourist entry. Your relatives send an invitation and status documents.
…booked on a flight already?
Tell us the date first, and we tell you what is achievable.
…a foreigner living in Thailand?
Visa rules follow your passport, not where you live. We confirm your route first and show your life in Thailand clearly: your Thai visa, work or business, and address.
Why korea visa applications get refused, and how we prevent it
- Too little information. A visa file lets an officer read your actual circumstances.
- Weak ties to Thailand. We document work, property and family.
- Documents that do not agree. We check flights, bookings, leave letter, itinerary and statements against each other.
If you are refused
Every application we prepare is backed by the Thai Kru guarantee. Ask us for the details. We also go through the refusal with you and tell you plainly what we would change.
Korea visa in brief
- Airlines will not board you without a valid K-ETA or visa.
- Immigration still decides entry at the border.

Korea visa and K-ETA questions
Does my nationality need a visa for Korea?
Some passports, including Thai, use K-ETA. Most others need a visa. We confirm yours.
My K-ETA was refused. What now?
Apply for a proper tourist visa with full documents. We address the refusal openly in the file.
Will Korea tell me why my K-ETA was refused?
No. K-ETA refusals give no reason and have no appeal.
Does a K-ETA refusal hurt my visa application?
Not if it is addressed properly. The visa officer assesses your actual documents.
How long can I stay?
Tourist visas commonly allow up to 90 days. Other categories have their own terms.
Can I be refused entry even with a visa or K-ETA?
Yes. Immigration decides entry at the border. A consistent file helps.
