Single top quark production at the International Linear Collider (ILC) can be used to obtain high precision measurements of the V{sub tb} Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa quark-mixing matrix (CKM) element as well as the effective tbW coupling. We have calculated the QCD correction for the cross section in the context of an effective vector boson approximation. Our results show a {approx}10% increase due to the strong interaction.
