Commissioned report
Verify a Korean business partner before you commit
The free check on this site tells you a company exists. A commissioned report tells you what its records actually say — filed accounts, how many people work there, what it was called before, and what to ask before you commit. Whether they are a supplier, a customer asking for credit terms, a distributor or an agent.
What the report contains
Registration and authenticity
Whether the company is registered and actively trading, whether it can issue you a valid tax invoice, and whether the number, opening date and representative on your paperwork match the tax record.
Complete filing history
Every revision the corporate register holds — former names, previous addresses, and how the filed headcount has moved. Suppliers rename and relocate more often than buyers expect, and an older invoice that seems not to match is usually this.
Filed accounts, every year on the register
Revenue, operating profit, net profit, assets, liabilities and debt ratio for each year filed — with the date of the most recent filing stated plainly. Some companies have twenty years on record, some have one, some file nothing at all. The report tells you which, rather than promising a number in advance.
Twelve months of pension records
Every Korean employer files a monthly pension contribution for each member of staff. That gives month-by-month headcount, hires and departures — the continuous evidence that a company is still operating, and the check that matters most for a supplier with no audited accounts. This is not available anywhere on this site; it is retrieved for the report.
A follow-up three months later
Everything in the report is a record that moves. Pension contributions are filed monthly, accounts annually, and a company can change its name, its address or its tax status at any time. Three months on, the checks are run again and you are told what has changed — a headcount that has fallen, filings that have stopped, a registration that has closed. A single report is a snapshot; this is what makes it a position you can rely on.
A written assessment
What the records show, in plain English, and what is worth asking before you proceed. Written by a person, not generated.
What it is not
It is not a credit rating, a solvency assessment, or a recommendation to trade. Every line states what a public filing says, sourced so you can check it. Where the records are silent, the report says so rather than filling the gap.

Requesting one
Send the company name and its 10-digit business registration number — both appear on any Korean invoice or contract. You will get a quote and a turnaround time before any work begins. Payment by bank transfer. The three-month follow-up is included; there is nothing further to arrange or pay.
Reports are scoped per company, so pricing depends on what the register holds. Tell us roughly what is at stake and what is worrying you — a first order, a distribution agreement, a deposit already requested — and the report will answer that rather than being generic.
Not sure yet? The free registration check answers whether a company exists and can invoice you, on any Korean business number, with no account.
