*''Japanese/Korean'': 己酉条約 ''(Kiyuu yakujou / Kiyu yakcho)''

The Kiyû Treaty was a treaty signed between the [[han|domain]] of [[Tsushima han|Tsushima]] and the royal court of [[Joseon Dynasty]] Korea, re-establishing friendly relations in the aftermath of [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi|Toyotomi Hideyoshi's]] [[Korean Invasions|invasions of Korea]] in the 1590s.

The treaty set a number of stipulations for trade relations, including that Japanese traveling to Korea would be restricted to [[Pusan]] and could not travel further into Korea without special authorization. Korea was also obliged to provide 100 ''[[koku]]'' worth of rice and beans to Tsushima han each year, and to allow Tsushima agents to conduct trade at the [[Waegwan]] ("Japan House") in Pusan.

The treaty was later revised in [[1635]].
