Pyongyang Sunan International Airport Terminals and Arrivals

Pyongyang Sunan International Airport handles international passengers through its main terminal building, and arrivals follow a set sequence of checks. Expect passport control, customs and baggage reclaim before you reach the arrivals hall.

Visitors on organised tours are usually met by their local guide and transport representative once they clear these checks. Independent arrivals at Pyongyang Sunan International Airport should confirm in advance who will be waiting for them and where the meeting point is.

Photography is restricted in the terminal and around the airport, so ask your guide before taking any pictures. Keep your documents within reach throughout the process, as officials may ask to see them more than once.
