The Need for Import and Export Certification Consulting

A Minimum Safeguard for Import and Export Trade
Import products that are closely related to national health and social safety of our country are subject to permissions and approvals by each item pursuant to the individual law. For cases where importer or exporter fails to comply with the regulations when importing or exporting goods, the Korean Government has prepared a safeguard for import and export in individual laws.
Reinforcement of
Non-Tariff Barriers
With the revision of the Customs Enforcement Checklist on April 19, 2018, about 120 items have been added to the list, resulting total of more than 7,300 items required to be checked at the Customs Enforcement stage. The expansion of FTA lowers the tariff barriers in Korea, while non-tariff barriers such as checking import and export requirements for goods directly related to national health and social safety are gradually strengthening. Hence, it is very important to check the import and export requirement system for importers and exporters when importing and exporting goods.
Vast and Professional
Individual Laws
The integrated public notification combines about 60 individual statutes, items, import and export requirements and procedures, revisions, etc. submitted by the heads of the relevant administrative institutions. The head of Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy integrated their export and import tips and announced them in the integrated public notification. The content is so vast and professional that it takes a professional help for the public to understand and comply with it.

SEIN listens to the difficulties of verifying the requirements from our clients and took the lead in solving the difficulties in interpreting individual laws, representing import and export permissions and quarantine services, and conducting follow-up management through professional consulting.
