■ What is a Korail Pass?
The Korail Pass is a free travel pass offered by Korail for foreigners visiting Korea. As a pass holder, you can travel on almost any train operated by Korail, allowing you to explore and experience the entire country.
There are some limitations when using a Korail Pass. For example, the Korail Pass is not valid for SRT, urban rail, or sightseeing trains.
Eligibility to purchase a Korail Pass
Korail Passes are only available to foreign travelers visiting South Korea. Vouchers that can be exchanged for Korail Passes are also eligible for purchase. This means that even if you have a voucher, you can’t exchange it for a Korail Pass if you’re not eligible for a Korail Pass.
If the voucher cannot be exchanged for a Korail Pass, you can get a refund from the travel agency where you purchased the voucher. Refunds are issued within one year of the date the voucher was issued. Vouchers can be returned within one year of the date of issue.
