Quick answers for your trip to Korea

Free tools that do the maths for you: the cheapest or fastest way into Seoul, how much tax you get back on shopping, and which days Korea is on holiday. Each tool links to the official sources behind its numbers.

Why trust these numbers

Each tool shows the date we last checked it and links to the official page we used: Korea's airport rail operator, Incheon Airport, the tax-refund operators and the national calendar. When a rule changes, we update the tool. Where we have to estimate, such as taxi fares in traffic, we say so.

Recently changed: Seoul's 30-day Climate Card ended on 1 October 2026 (the 1- to 7-day passes for visitors continue), and the AREX airport trains move to a new timetable on 23 October 2026.

Coming next: eSIM vs SIM card prices, transit cards for visitors, and a K-ETA checker.
