Ulju-gun Expands Support for Facility Improvement Costs for Conversion to Tourist Accommodation Businesses

Up to 200 Million KRW Support for Facility Improvement Costs Covering 70%... Apply by March 21

Ulsan City Ulju-gun will significantly expand support for facility improvement costs for local businesses converting from general lodging to tourist lodging starting this year.

Ulju-gun is promoting a facility improvement cost support project for converting to tourist lodging to revitalize stay-type tourism and strengthen the local tourism industry.

The purpose is to help local lodging businesses provide higher-level facilities and services and create an environment where domestic and international tourists can stay more conveniently and comfortably.

In particular, this year, the support scale has been increased up to 200 million KRW within 70% of the facility improvement costs. Last year, support was up to 100 million KRW within 50% of the facility improvement costs.

The support targets businesses wishing to convert from general lodging to tourist lodging types such as tourist hotels, family hotels, and small hotels. It supports costs necessary for improving facilities such as ▲guest rooms, bathrooms, front desks, lobbies ▲fire and safety facility maintenance ▲building interior and exterior ▲breakfast facility installation and other facility improvements.

However, businesses that receive subsidies through the tourist lodging conversion facility improvement cost support project cannot suspend operations, close, relocate, or dispose of the business for three years after registering as tourist lodging.

Businesses wishing to apply should refer to the announcement posted on the Ulju-gun website, prepare the application form and business plan, and submit them by visit or mail by March 21.

Ulju-gun plans to select support recipients in early April and actively support tourism promotion linked with Ulju-gun to secure competitiveness for tourist lodging facilities that have completed facility improvements.

For detailed project information, please contact the Ulju-gun Tourism Division.

An Ulju-gun official said, “We expect that as the number of tourist lodging facilities in the region increases through facility improvement support, the length of stay of tourists will naturally increase, positively impacting the local economy,” adding, “We will make further efforts to improve tourism conditions so that tourists can enjoy their stay comfortably.”
