The following applications must be installed in off-signers’ mobile phones.

  • Self-quarantine Safety Protection App: Long term residents(foreigners), Korean off-signers that have entered Korea through Customs(ministry of justice).

B. Foreigners, Reembarking Koreans, persons exempt from quarantine: Must remain on-board until the test results arrive.

Testing(Sample Collection) will be conducted at a time and in a location designated by the director of the NQS. An agent from the shipping agency / company shall accompany the off-signer and to the vessel after the sample has been collected. Safe transportation system must be secured, and the use of public transportation is prohibited.

Testing of persons showing symptoms shall be conducted in a separate location. The person must be isolated inside their cabin until the results arrive.

A pratique is issued upon the confirmation of ‘negative’ status. The pratique is valid for 72hrs and the recipient of the pratique must undergo immigrations within the 72hrs.
