Korail announced KORAIL PASS PLUS for foreign visitors in late 2025. It combines a foreign-visitor rail pass with a prepaid Railplus card for buses and subways. Korail's announcement explains that travelers buy a Korail Pass, apply for the additional transit-card service and collect the card at designated major-station kiosks. Urban bus and subway fares require prepaid credit separate from the rail-pass entitlement. Because the Korail Pass is intended for international visitors, check eligibility before purchasing.
Before travel: Recheck pass types, current prices, eligible trains after the 2026 rail integration, kiosk locations and card charges on Korail's latest sales pages. The 2025 launch prices are not presented as current.
