TRANSPORT — The DPR Korea International Airport is in Pyongyang, about 20 km away from the city.
The most common way to travel to DPR Korea is by plane on the Beijing—Pyongyang route. In case of deterioration of the security situation, the Embassy of the Republic of Serbia in Beijing, China, should be contacted.
OTHER INFORMATION — The official currency is the Korean Won (KPW). However, foreigners may only use cash in a foreign currency to make payments in DPR Korea.
