Up to 30 New Zealand veterans who served in the Korean War will be funded to attend the 60th anniversary commemorations of the Korean War Armistice next year.
Veterans Affairs Minister Nathan Guy announced all expenses would be covered, including medical care.
He said a ballot may be needed to allocated the places, depending on the level of interest.
Priority would be given to those who hadn't already received Government support to attend previous services in Korea.
Mr Guy said it was the same policy used for the 60th commemorations of the Second World War.
