Many overseas visitors to Korea
ask the same question.
“If I have a Korean 010 number,
can I use mobile identity verification?”
The answer is No.
Having a Korean 010 number
does not mean
you can use mobile identity verification.
Almost shopping, booking,
and payment services in Korea require
mobile identity verification.
This is different from receiving
a text verification code.
With a travel SIM or eSIM,
you can use a Korean 010 number
for calls and texts.
And you can receive
text verification codes.
However, mobile identity verification
for payments, orders, and reservations
is not supported.
It is not true that
all Korean 010 numbers
support mobile identity verification.
Please remember
this important difference
before your trip to Korea.
