BRANCH ESTABLISHMENT PROCEDURES AND DOCUMENTS REQUIRED

A. Procedures

A foreign company intending to establish a branch in Korea (hereinafter referred to as “the foreign company”) is required to perform the following procedures:

1. File an application for the establishment of a branch with a bank operating in Korea. Upon obtaining the bank’s acceptance of the application, the foreign company shall have the branch registered with the bank. (Hereinafter referred to as “Bank Registration”).

2. Once the branch is registered with a bank, the foreign company shall register the branch with a court. (Hereinafter referred to as “Court Registration”).

3. Upon completion of the two steps above, the foreign company shall report establishment of a branch to a tax office and have the branch registered with the tax office for taxation purposes. (Hereinafter referred to as “Tax Registration”).

Each of the aforementioned three steps takes approximately 7 days to 10 days to perform after all of the required documents and information are received by our firm. In order to avoid any unintended delay, we also request the foreign company to email us the scanned copies for our review prior to notarization.

B. Documents required

Each of the three steps summarized in the foregoing chapter requires various forms of documentation. Some of the documents are required to be submitted to several different authorities. These documents will be reproduced by us and submitted to the relevant authorities. Therefore, the foreign company is only required to provide us with one copy of each of the required documents.

All of the required documents and information should be prepared in English by the foreign company. We will be responsible for translating all required materials into Korean for submission to the concerned authorities in Korea.

The required documents may be classified into two categories, i.e., documents that should be prepared by the foreign company and documents that should be prepared by our firm based on the information provided by the foreign company as listed below:

Documents to be prepared by the foreign company (i.e., head office of the proposed Korea Branch)

1. 1. Articles of Incorporation of the foreign company (for Bank, Court and Tax Registration) ;
2. 2. A certificate of corporate resolution regarding establishment of the Korea Branch and nomination of the Branch Representative by the foreign company (Exhibit 1, for Bank and Court Registration) ;

In addition, regarding Items 2, 5 and 6, “Apostille” should be affixed by the relevant governmental authorities in order to legalize these documents. In case your nation does not enter into the “Apostille Convention”, the notarized documents should be certified by Korean Consul in your nation.

All of the documents should be carefully prepared and mailed to our office. The attached exhibits (sample blank forms) demonstrate how to prepare the documents. The foreign company should either re-type the exhibits or use the enclosed disc containing electronic copies of the exhibits.
