Core data is missing or not current. Calculations are not offered as verified.

LandedGrid does not currently calculate for South Korea.

The rules below are documented for reference; see the coverage matrix for what is needed to enable it.

Customs valuation

CIF-type basis — transport and insurance to the border are included

Transaction value including freight, insurance and other transport-related costs up to the port of import (CIF basis).

Customs Act (Korea), Art. 30 · Korea Legislation Research Institute

Customs exchange rate

Korea Customs Service publishes weekly customs exchange rates for imports. The official open-data API needs a registered service key; until the key is configured LandedGrid holds no KCS rates and non-KRW amounts need a rate from you.

Applicable date: Week of the import declaration.

Taxes and government fees on import

  • Value-added tax on imports (10%)10%

    Base: customs value + duty + additional duties + trade remedies + excise

    Value-Added Tax Act (Korea), Arts. 29–30

Low-value consignments

  • Personal-use goods whose total customs value including shipping does not exceed US$150 are exempt from customs duty and VAT. Above US$150, duty and VAT are calculated on the total customs value.

    In force from 2016-01-01 · Clearance of personal-use express goods

What the origin — Indonesia — changes

The standard (MFN / third-country) rate applies to goods from Indonesia unless a measure for that origin says otherwise. Three kinds of measure depend on origin, and the calculator above resolves each for your tariff code and date:

  • Preferences. Where South Korea grants a preferential rate to Indonesia under a trade agreement or scheme, it is shown as a separate scenario. It applies only if the goods meet the rules of origin and you hold proof. How preferential origin works.
  • Trade remedies. Anti-dumping and countervailing duties are not identified reliably in the ingested file. About trade remedies.
  • Additional tariffs. South Korea applies no general origin-based additional tariffs beyond trade remedies in the data LandedGrid holds.

What LandedGrid does not calculate for this destination

  • base duty: Rates come from the KCS annual open-data file. Adjustment, quota and emergency tariffs that change during the year may be missing until the next file.
  • preferences: FTA rates are covered where the agreement code maps to a single, certain partner. The KCS FTA portal states its information is for reference only; the agreement text governs.
  • trade remedies: Anti-dumping and countervailing duties are not identified reliably in the ingested file.
  • quotas: Quota tariff recommendations and balances are not held. In-quota rates are never assumed.
  • taxes: VAT is calculated at 10%. The legal text of the VAT base has not yet been verified by LandedGrid against a primary Korean source, and other internal taxes are not calculated.
  • excise: Individual consumption tax, liquor tax, education tax and rural development special tax are not calculated.
  • customs fx: KCS weekly rates require a data.go.kr service key that is not configured.
  • regulatory: Import requirements under the Integrated Public Notice are not yet covered.
