The K-ETA is an online authorisation for nationalities that can enter South Korea without a visa, so it does not apply to Vanuatu citizens. You apply for a visa through a South Korean embassy or consulate before you fly, and requirements and fees are set by the Korean authorities. Rules are changed periodically, so check the latest status.
Korea's K-ETA applies only to visa-exempt nationalities; Vanuatu passport holders currently need a visa arranged in advance.
Apply for the visa well before departure through the South Korean embassy or consulate that serves your country of residence, with a recent photo, your accommodation details and the documents it requests. Processing times and validity are set by the Korean authorities. Temporary visa waivers are occasionally announced for certain nationalities, so check whether any current waiver covers Vanuatu citizens before booking.
