Safety and Travel Advisory

Safety and Security

Dragon Hill Lodge is a secured military resort with Force Protection protocols in place. Access
to the property is controlled through a guarded gate. All guests must present a valid Military I.D. card. Sponsored guests must show a physical passport and I.D. card.

While the hotel and surrounding areas are generally safe, we encourage guests to follow these
standard precautions:

• Secure valuables and important documents in your in-room safe.

• Stay alert and keep personal belongings close in public areas.

• Respect local customs and laws, which may differ from your home country.

• Share your travel itinerary with a trusted contact and keep your phone charges.

• Consider travel insurance for medical emergencies, cancellations, and lost items.

• Keep emergency contacts handy, including the U.S. Embassy, nearby hospitals, and our resort hotline. 

 

Travel Advisory for International Travelers

Before traveling to Dragon Hill Lodge, please check the latest guidance from United States
Forces Korea (USFK) and the Republic of Korea. Travel policies may change at any time and
are the responsibility of the traveler.

Korea Electronic Travel Authorization (K-ETA)

Most international travelers must apply for a K-ETA before boarding their flight. Visas are not
issued on arrival, including tourist visas. Without a K-ETA, you may be denied boarding.
K-ETA Exemptions (as of April 2023): Nationals from 22 countries—including the U.S., UK,
Canada, Japan, and Australia—are temporarily exempt from K-ETA until December 31, 2025.
Travelers may still apply for K-ETA to avoid submitting an arrival card.
