[Asia Economy Reporter Park Sun-mi]KB Kookmin Bank announced on the 2nd that it has completely revamped its foreign exchange internet banking service.


With this service overhaul, the submission of foreign exchange-related supporting documents, including those for exports and imports, has been fully digitized, allowing customers handling foreign exchange transactions to submit supporting documents via internet banking without visiting branches. Foreign exchange purchase (deposit) certificates can also be issued through internet banking without issuance fees, reducing the inconvenience of customers having to visit branches in person.


Additionally, non-face-to-face transactions for export and import-related tasks such as export bill purchase (collection) applications and import letter of credit maturity extension applications have been expanded. The foreign exchange transaction process has been improved by introducing bulk overseas remittance via file upload, further enhancing the convenience of foreign currency remittance transactions.


Meanwhile, to commemorate the revamp of the foreign exchange internet banking service, a prize recommendation event will be held until the 30th of this month for export-import companies using internet banking, and a fee discount event will continue until the end of September.



A KB Kookmin Bank official stated, “With the revamp of the foreign exchange internet banking service, accessibility and convenience for foreign exchange transactions have improved, enabling customers who find it difficult to visit branches to conveniently conduct foreign exchange transactions,” and added, “We will continue to strive to provide convenient services to foreign exchange customers.”
