Starting Wednesday (June 8), unvaccinated people visiting South Korea will also be exempt from quarantine if they test "negative" for COVID-19 twice within three days of arrival.
Arrivals must test "negative" before boarding a flight to Korea, regardless of vaccination status.
All arrivals who test "positive" in one of the two required COVID-19 tests after entry (one taken at the time of entry and one taken within three days of arrival) must undergo a seven-day quarantine.
The news was announced by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under the Ministry of Health and Human Services on Friday.
All but one of Korea's 17 casino venues are open only to foreign players. In 2021, when inbound travel restrictions for foreigners were stricter, the 13% year-on-year increase in casino gaming revenue was led by Kangwon Land, the only real estate open to locals.
In other situations, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport said it would lift several COVID-19 response measures related to the operation of Incheon International Airport, a major aviation hub, from Wednesday.
The number of flights allowed will double from 20 to 40 per hour. The hours allowed will also return to 24 hours, not a curfew, on a previous 24-hour cycle from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m.
The CDC attributed the relaxations related to entry rules for Incheon International Airport and South Korea to "stabilization" of the outlook for quarantine use, judged on an "internal and external" basis, and "global trends in quarantine exemptions for foreign travelers." For example, Britain, Denmark and Germany said they "have."
Nevertheless, the CDC said anyone without acceptable evidence of COVID-19 test results would be instructing incoming flight operators to ban boarding.
South Korea resumed issuing short-term tourist visas to enter the peninsula for individual visitors or group tourists from June 1.
The CDC noted in Friday's announcement that immigration policy may change further depending on the COVID-19 pandemic situation.
