Does an American have to ask for special permission to travel to North korea if they want to visit there?

If memory serves me right U.S. citizens still cannot travel to
Cuba and North Korea legally, meaning you need special permission from the State Department to do so. Somewhere in your U.S. passport is a list of countries you/we are not allowed to travel too.

better think thrice ... It will be very hard to get in.. true

your thought should be to getting out.

North Korea hardly lets "anyone" in. It is a closed country. You would have to petition N. Korea..........but don't count on anything.

You can't even ask. They have allowed about a dozen American in their borders for the last 20 years, with heavy restrictions on where they can go.
South Koreans can't even get in. Absolutely closed.

Absolutely YES. North Korea is not an open country. In fact, it is only in Singapore I have seen its Embassy.

You need not just a visa, but valid documents, you cannot tour around there. It is a closed country.

I Wonder why you would care to travel to North Korea anyway? It's not on my list of prime vacation spots.

Everyone is right- You can't get there legally. Go to the State Department and ask.

Worse, there is no government to help you if you get into trouble there. If you went to Europe, there is a slight chance you'd get into some kind of legal hot water. The Embassy will help you. But not in North Korea. Don't go there, no matter how good an idea it seems to you. Just not worth the risk.
