The Republic of Korea Presidential Unit Citation (Hangul: 대한민국 대통령 부대 표창; Hanja: 大韓民國大統領 部隊表彰) is a military unit award of the government of South Korea that may be presented to South Korean military units, and foreign military units for outstanding performance in defense of the Republic of Korea. In recognition of the exceptional military service to South Korea during the Korean War, all United States military departments were authorized the unit award for that period.

When the Republic of Korea Presidential Unit Citation is worn on the South Korea military uniform (right side) it is as a ribbon 1 ³⁄₈ inches (35 mm) wide surrounded by a gold frame. The ribbon is white, with a ¹⁵⁄₆₄ inch (6 mm) red above blue Taeguk in the center. At the edge of the ribbon, on each side, are the following stripes: ¹³⁄₆₄ inch (5 mm) Hunter Green; ¹⁄₆₄ inch (0.4 mm) White; ¹⁄₆₄ inch (0.4 mm) Old Glory Red; ¹⁄₆₄ inch (0.4 mm) white; ¹⁄₆₄ inch (0.4 mm) Old Glory Red; ¹⁄₆₄ inch (0.4 mm) white; ¹⁄₆₄ inch (0.4 mm) Hunter Green. No ribbon devices are authorized for wear with this award.

Foreign military unit members who are authorized to wear the award, either wear the award on the right side of the uniform (e.g. U.S. Army) with any other same size unit award emblems or wear the slightly smaller size version of the award on the left side of the uniform (e.g. U.S. Marine Corps, Navy, Coast Guard, Air Force) with their other service ribbons.
