Automated Immigration System (aka. Smart Entry System*) clearance is an electronic passport and fingerprint reader that allows travelers to move more quickly and efficiently through customs and immigration questioning. Travelers may only need to scan their electronic passports and fingerprints at automated kiosks to clear immigration. In order to take advantage of this system, users must already have an Alien Registration Card and then register at a Registration Center (see list below).

Once the registration process is completed, you can use the electronic kiosks located near immigration when re-entering Korea. Registration is free of charge.
