[Remarks]

1. An “e-ticket”, issued through the KORAIL online system, is a voucher ticket that must be exchanged for a KR PASS at designated KORAIL centers before travel. At the time of exchange, please show the credit card that was used for the purchase along with your passport.
2. The dollar price of the voucher can differ depending on the exchange rate at the time of purchase. When you purchase an e-ticket, the price in South Korean won will be applied.
3. The KR PASS is a registered pass that cannot be used by any other individual whose name does not match the information on the voucher. You may not purchase more than two passes for yourself per reservation.
4. Reservations can be made as early as one year before your entry. Be sure to enter accurate passport and credit card information (as of this time, we accept five credit cards: VISA, MASTER, AMEX, DINERS, & JCB) for reservation and identity confirmation when you reserve or purchase an e-ticket from the KORAIL website www.korail.com. Please note that you must buy a ticket at least five days before your arrival in Korea. Because after purchasing the e-ticket, it will take 5 days for the KR PASS to be ready.
5. e-tickets must be exchanged within 60 days from of the date of its purchase. When this period of validity expires, the transaction will be automatically canceled. No cancellation fee is levied.
6. If you purchase an e-ticket using another individual’s credit card, then the owner of that card must be present when transferring the e-ticket for the KR Pass.
7. If you lose your e-ticket, you can print it again via the reservation website. But if you lose your KR PASS, it can not be reissued.
