What not to bring with you to Korea?

When you plan a trip to the beautiful South Korea, it is important to know what items are restricted. Here are a few key points about entry prohibitions:

First, drugs and controlled substances are strictly prohibited, including cannabis. Carrying such items may not only result in long-term imprisonment, but in serious cases may even lead to the death penalty. The South Korean government has an extremely strict attitude towards combating drugs, and any drug-related activities will face severe legal sanctions.

Secondly, South Korea has strict quarantine regulations on the import of food and fruits. Food and fruit imported without permission will be confiscated, and carrying more than the prescribed amount may also be considered an offense and risk fines.

Carrying weapons and explosives, including knives, handguns, fireworks and explosives, is strictly prohibited in South Korea and will result in arrest and criminal charges. Therefore, it is important to ensure that your luggage does not contain such items.

In addition, a series of other items such as imitations, highly toxic substances, radioactive substances, hazardous chemicals and biological products are also included in the prohibited list. Tobacco products, such as e-cigarettes and cigarettes, are also not allowed into the country.

When preparing your luggage, be sure to carefully check and follow these regulations to ensure a smooth trip, avoid unnecessary legal troubles, and enjoy your wonderful trip to South Korea. Remember, knowing and respecting the rules is the first step to traveling safely.
