[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Gominhyeong] Unmanned civil service issuance machines, which previously required payment of fees in cash only, can now be used and paid for with credit cards or mobile phones.


According to Jeonju City on the 25th, to resolve civil complaints caused by the inability to use cards at unmanned civil service issuance machines, the city is promoting credit card payment services for these machines.


The city has completed the installation of credit card terminals on 43 out of 44 unmanned civil service issuance machines.


However, one machine installed at the LH Jeonbuk Regional Headquarters cannot have a terminal installed due to limited internal space, but it will be supplemented in the future to provide convenience to citizens.


With the installation of credit card terminals on unmanned civil service issuance machines, citizens can now obtain civil documents not only with cash but also through credit cards, debit cards, and mobile payment services such as Samsung Pay.


However, for certain issued documents such as real estate registration certificates, payment is only possible in cash as the Court Administration Office and the Ministry of the Interior and Safety are still in consultation.



Noh Sangmook, head of the Jeonju City Autonomous Administration Division, said, “We have been able to improve the inconvenience of citizens having to pay fees only in cash at frequently used unmanned civil service issuance machines.”
