What is the Tax Support Program?
The Tax Support Program is a new financial benefits system designed specifically for international patients seeking medical treatment in Korea. Unlike the old VAT refund that offered limited rebates of $72-144 per procedure, the Tax Support Program provides immediate discounts ranging from 7.5% to 10% on your treatment costs.
Created through a partnership between Medical Travel Korea and participating hospitals, this program makes Korean medical tourism even more affordable and accessible.
