South Korea to ban travel to Haiti from May

The South Korean government has decided to impose a travel ban on Haiti, which is currently in a state of anarchy, from May.
The Subcommittee on Tobacco Use Policy deliberated and decided to raise the travel alert level for Haiti to Level 4 (travel prohibited) from May 1, and announced this.
Haiti, an island nation in the Caribbean, has recently seen frequent gang violence and a dramatic deterioration in the security situation.
In response to this situation, the South Korean government, with the cooperation of the Dominican Republic, has twice assisted in the evacuation of South Korean nationals in Haiti.
In South Korea, if you visit or stay in an area under travel alert level 4 without government permission,
In such cases, they may be penalized under Article 26 of the Passport Act and other related laws. Currently, there are about 60 Koreans in Haiti. Since Haiti has been designated a travel-ban country,
These people are now required to either depart or obtain special permission to use their passports. Myanmar's Rakhine State will also be designated as a travel ban area from May 1.
The ministry explained that clashes between military and anti-military forces in Rakhine State have intensified and the travel ban is necessary to ensure the safety of people.
On November 25 last year, the South Korean government designated the northern and eastern Shan states of Myanmar and Kayah state as travel ban areas, and
With this additional designation, safety measures are being further strengthened.
