According to this article, it does: https://www.nknews.org/2014/12/north-koreas-passports-and-how-they-use-them/

... both citizens and foreigners need both an entry and an exit visa. Usually they are issued as one “exit and entry,” but there are other cases as well.

I have not been able to verify this claim.

    I don't understand. If citizens need a "visa" then it's not a visa, but something else. –  Mar 16 '17 at 03:53

    It is worth noting North Korea citizens aren't normally allowed to exit the country in the first place. So, I wonder what exceptions might exist to allow them to exit the country? – George Chalhoub Mar 16 '17 at 05:15

  • @JanDoggen try googling for the quoted text and then clicking the lin; that should let you read the article – Brian Mar 16 '17 at 19:04

    @fredsbend USSR had an "exit visa", called exactly like that. So wording is not surprising here. Also Oxford dictionary includes this meaning https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/us/visa – Andrey Mar 20 '17 at 18:30
