The Korean Friendship Association (KFA) is a Spain-based friendship association with the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. The KFA was established in 2000. It has official representatives in 34 countries.

KFA's membership standards are lax, inviting membership for "everyone who has the same goals as the KFA and is interested in the DPRK."[1] KFA USA member Alex Dillard[2] has stated "Most of KFA identify as some brand of communist, but we do have conservatives and socdems"[3] and that he works with Jackson Hinkle through KFA USA.[4]

In 2022, the United Kingdom branch of the KFA was censored by Facebook.[5]
