South Korean nationals are likely to soon get visa-on-arrival facility, which is provided to visitors from 11 countries at present.
Tourism ministry has sought the facility to be extended to about dozen more countries including South Korea, Germany, France and Russia to boost foreign tourist arrivals in the country.
"Though we have sought the VoA scheme for many countries, it is the home ministry which decides on it after taking into account all concerned issues," sources in tourism ministry said.
South Korea has got the nod and an announcement to this effect is likely to be made early next year, they said.
Currently, there are total 11 countries which have been given the VoA facility and after the inclusion of South Korea the number will go up to 12.
