[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Geochang-gun, Gyeongnam Province, will waive the issuance fees for two types of resident registration certificates and abstracts, eight types of family relation registration certificates, and two types of removal registration certificates and abstracts at unmanned civil service issuance machines within the region starting in April.

This measure was taken to alleviate concerns about face-to-face interactions amid the ongoing COVID-19 situation. It is an administrative service aimed at encouraging non-face-to-face issuance using unmanned civil service issuance machines instead of face-to-face issuance at civil service counters, thereby enhancing resident convenience.

Among the 115 types of civil documents that can be issued at unmanned civil service issuance machines, the issuance fees per document for the most frequently used resident registration certificates and abstracts and family relation registration certificates were 200 KRW and 500 KRW respectively, but from April, they can be issued free of charge.

The county is promoting the revision of the ‘Geochang-gun Various Certificates Issuance Fee Collection Ordinance’ to exempt fees, which will be promulgated and enforced from April 1.

Jo Jeong-sun, Head of the Civil Service Communication Division, said, “We hope that the fee exemption for the most frequently issued civil documents will help residents who are struggling due to COVID-19,” and added, “We will continue to prioritize resident convenience by providing various non-face-to-face services in civil administration.”
