On February 5, 2020, the Korean government has announced
that the visa-free entry to Jeju Island
is temporarily suspended amidst the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)
outbreak. This is applicable to all foreigners (including travelers on transit
to/from China).

The temporary suspension was made to minimize any new
coronavirus infections in Jeju Island and on the mainland South Korea.

Before the announcement, Philippine passport holders can
enter Jeju Island visa-free through direct charter flights and ships. Though this isn’t
exactly bad news, foreign travelers will just need to have a valid visa to
visit the island similar to the policy of its country’s mainland.
