Gwangju Main Customs Office Operates Special Export-Import Clearance Measures for Seollal Holiday

The Gwangju Regional Customs Office plans to implement a 'Special Support Measures for Export and Import Customs Clearance' during the Lunar New Year holiday period.

First, until the 12th of next month, the export-import customs clearance system will operate 24 hours a day, including holidays and nighttime, to ensure the rapid clearance of urgent raw materials and timely shipment support for export cargo.

To prevent cases of fines imposed for violating the mandatory shipment period (one month) for export cargo, the office plans to support export companies as much as possible by processing shipment period extension requests even during the holiday.

To assist the cash flow of small and medium export companies, a 'Special Customs Refund Support Period' will also be operated until the 8th of next month.

During this support period, the refund processing deadline will be extended until 8 p.m., and even if document review is required, the refund will be paid first and the document review will be conducted after the holiday.
