Why this verdict
South Korean citizens are encoded from the Tajik MFA 52-country unilateral visa-free list for up to 30 days. This destination-wave matrix record is intentionally conservative: ordinary passport, short tourism/visitor travel only. Work, study, residence, employment, family/private routes, diplomatic/service/special passports, GBAO permit needs, route handling, registration duties, carrier handling and Tajik border discretion can change the practical answer. Reconfirm with the Tajik Ministry of Foreign Affairs, e-Visa service or a Tajik mission before booking.
Conditional rules
- GBAO / Pamir region travel Conditional
The eVisa flow and Tajik mission guidance can require a separate GBAO permit for travel to the Gorno-Badakhshan Autonomous Oblast. This matrix row does not encode that permit as included.
- Work, study, residence, family/private, labour, media, missionary, humanitarian or other non-tourist purpose Visa required
The Tajik MFA standard-visa page lists separate visa categories for those routes; the ordinary tourist/visitor verdict should not be used for them.
- Stay beyond the visa-free, eVisa or issued-visa period Visa required
The eVisa is not extendable, and non-visa-free or longer stays need the appropriate standard visa or permission route.
- Diplomatic, service, special or official passports Conditional
Tajikistan publishes separate diplomatic/service/special-passport arrangements; this row is for ordinary passports only.
