1. Introduction

1.1. General information

1.2. Aim and scope

Widespread  use  of  international  standards  and  flexible  ap-
proval procedures are key elements for the industry in mak-
ing best use of global supply chains, economies of scale, and 
fast-paced innovation. The EU and Korea apply generally simi-
lar requirements, largely based on international standards.

Annex 2-B of the EU–Korea FTA on electronics (1) aims at sim-
plifying the testing and conformity assessment processes of 
EU electric products exported to Korea, with a view to avoiding 
partially,  or  ideally  fully,  the  duplication  of  certification  pro-
cedures.

Annex  2-B  covers  electromagnetic  compatibility  (EMC) 
and  electrical  safety  certification  procedures  for  EU  elec-
trical and electronic equipment, professional electrotechnical 
equipment,  electrical  household  appliances  and  consumer 
electronics defined in Annex 2-B-1. However, other certifica-
tion procedures, for example on specific absorption rate (SAR), 
telecommunication  standards  or  energy  efficiency,  to  name 
just a few, are not covered by the FTA and products should be 
tested according to Korean law.

However, in the past, EU manufacturers often had to under-
go double certification procedures in order to be able to ex-
port  their  products  to  the  Korean  market.  Indeed,  electrical 
machines,  parts  and  electronic  appliances  needed  to  obtain 
a pre-market certification approval from officially recognised 
conformity assessment bodies (CAB) in Korea. These proced-
ures have been burdensome, time-consuming and costly.

With  the  recognition  of  these  technical  barriers,  the  EU  and 
Korea  realised  the  need  to  further  rely  on  the  use  of  inter-
national standards, so as to better adapt to the existence of 
global supply chains, permit economies of scale and provide 
an innovation-friendly environment.

The  EU–Korea  FTA  entered  into  force  in  July  2011  and  has 
established a regime that eases certification procedures for 
electrical and electronic products.

Table 1: Example of compulsory certification procedures in Korea for certain communication equipment showing which elements are 

covered by the FTA and which are not covered (Radio Research Agency, 2013).

(1) OJ L 127, 14.5.2011, p. 1134.

Annex 2-B contains commitments by the EU and Korea to fur-
ther harmonise and align respective domestic EMC and electric 
safety technical requirements with international ones (see no-

tably Articles 1 and 2) and to allow, in most situations, tests 
of products to be conducted either in-house by producers or in 
laboratories of the country of production (see notably Article 3).

1.3. Definitions

Electromagnetic compatibility is usually defined as the guar-
antee that a device or system is able to function satisfactorily 
in a normal electromagnetic environment without unduly inter-
fering with or disturbing the proper functioning of other devices.

Electrical  safety  certification  of  electrical  and  electronic 
devices or systems aims at protecting consumers and users 
from hazards and accidents such as fire, electrical shock or 
injury.

1.5. Marking

Pursuant to the Electrical Appliances Safety Control Act, the Ra-
dio Waves Act and the Framework Act on Telecommunications, 
all products should bear the KC mark before entering Korean  
customs clearance. The mark must be visible on the product 

wrapping as well as the product itself. It must be printed or 
engraved and must not fall off. Such marking aims at inform-
ing and reassuring consumers that the product meets Korean 
EMC and electric safety requirements.

2.  Electric safety certification

2.1.  Korean  regulations  and  standards  for 

electric safety

Korean regulations, standards and practices for electric safe-
ty certification define the regime applicable to EU imports of 
electric and electronic products (see legal references in para-
graph   above). Importers are invited to check these pieces of 
legislation in their original Korean version in order to be sure 
to comply with Korean law. These regulations, standards and 
practices should comply with commitments of Annex 2-B of 
the EU–Korea FTA with a view to easing certification proce-
dures and avoiding duplication as much as possible.

In line with Article 2 of Annex 2-B, the Korean technical re-
quirements for electric safety are in most cases aligned with 
international standards (e.g. ISO or IEC). As EU technical re-
quirements for electric safety are also in most cases aligned 
with international standards, this should ensure that obliga-
tions are the same in the EU and in Korea as a rule. Howev-
er some deviations may exist for certain products. European 
manufacturers should therefore review the Korean legislation 
and make sure that their products comply with Korean tech-
nical requirements.

See in Annex 1 the list of relevant Korean technical require-
ments and standards and the equivalent list of international 
standards  on  electric  safety.  This  list  may  evolve  as  Korean 
law changes. It is therefore provided only for indicative pur-
poses and the manufacturer should check the Korean law.

2.2.  Conformity  assessment  procedures  for 

electric safety

Complying  with  relevant  technical  requirements  for  electric 
safety is one part of the obligations that imported products 
must achieve. But it is also necessary to prove to Korean au-
thorities and/or users and consumers that such products do 
comply with these requirements. This is what is usually called 
the ‘conformity assessment procedures’.

Article 3 of the enforcement regulations of the Electric Appli-
ances  Safety  Control  Act  (ER-EASCA)  establishes  three  dif-
ferent  conformity  assessment  procedures  for  electric 
safety  in  Korea.  Each  product  in  the  scope  of  the  EASCA 
falls into one of these three procedure categories, depending 
on how high the Korean authorities have judged that the risk 
to human health is.

an  designated  certifi cation 
agency.

But, for products originating 
in  the  EU,  the  laboratory  in 
which tests are done can be 
an EU laboratory (which, for 
all  products,  must  be  rec-
ognised under the IECEE CB 
scheme (check the EU mem-
bers within the list of mem-
bers  of  the  IECEE)  or  must 
have  a  mutual  recognition 
agreement  for  test  reports 
with a Korean laboratory; in 
addition  to  this,  broadband 
and  communication  equip-
ment  can  also  be  tested  in 
‘notified EU laboratories’).

Article 4.2(b) of the 
FTA 

Products must be tested by 
a  designated  Korean  test-
ing  agency  (see  paragraph 
2.2.3 below).

This  is  the  most  stringent 
regime.

Electric  wires  and  power 
cords,  switches,  capacitor 
and  power  filters,  fuses, 
transformers, heating ap-
pliances,  electric  kitchen 
appliances, etc.

Table 2: Overview of certification schemes on electric safety (EU DEL, 2013)

You  can  find  in  Annex  3  the  comprehensive  list  of  products 
and  corresponding  conformity  assessment  procedures  for 
electric safety in the Korean law. Note that this is an in-house 
English translation of the Korean law, which may evolve. Im-
porters are therefore asked to double-check the latest version 
of the original Korean law to be sure to be up to date.

2.2.1.  Supplier’s  confirmation  of  conformity  pro-

cedure

The supplier’s confirmation of conformity procedure is defined 
in Article 3.3 of the ER-EASCA and based on the concept of the 

supplier’s  declaration  of  conformity.  For  the  products  falling 
in its scope, manufacturers are responsible for conducting in-
house  tests  and  complying  with  relevant  Korean  legislation 
and standards.

Pursuant  to  Article  25-5  of  the  ER-EASCA,  manufacturers 
shall  conduct  testing  for  each  model  of  the  electrical  appli-
ance,  produce  the  following  documents  and  keep  them  in-
house for 5 years from the date of manufacture:

  A document covering product description and photos of the 

product;

  A result report of the tests of the electric appliance includ-

10

ing the following elements: rating, electric circuit diagram, 
list of parts and materials subject to safety control, indica-
tions  including  instructions  for  use  or  warnings,  date  and 
place of product test and the name and organisation of the 
person performing the test;

  A certificate of supplier’s conformity (note that the form pro-
vided here is an in-house English translation of the Korean 
form with no legal value; the original Korean version of the 
form attached to the Korean legislation must be used).

Special  situation  for  broadband  and  communication 
equipment (certification by an EU notified laboratory)

Broadband and communication equipment falls under the scope 
of  the  self-regulatory  safety  confirmation  procedure.  However, 
in addition to having the possibility to conduct tests in an IECEE 
CB laboratory in Europe or in an EU laboratory having a mutual 
recognition agreement for test reports with a South Korean labo-
ratory, they can also do tests on a notified EU laboratory.

2.2.2.  Self-regulatory safety confirmation proced-

ure

The self-regulatory safety confirmation procedure is defined in 
Article 3.2 of the ER-EASCA. This procedure requires products 
under its scope to be tested by independent laboratories (so-
called ‘third party certification’). For products originating in the 
EU (i.e. produced in the EU and respecting the rules of origin of 
the EU–Korea FTA), the test can be done in an IECEE CB labo-
ratory in the EU (you can check the list of IECEE CB laborato-
ries here) or in an EU laboratory having a mutual recognition 
agreement for test reports with a South Korean laboratory (see 
Annex 2) as provided for in Article 20-2 of the ER-EASCA.

Importers  must  fill  in  the  electric  appliances  self-regulato-
ry  declaration  (see  English  translation  as  an  example;  note 
that  the  original  Korean  version  must  be  used)  and  attach 
the following documents: copy of business registration certif-
icate, product guide (picture included), test report of the self- 
regulatory  safety  declaration,  letter  of  representation.  The 
results  of  the  test  must  be  submitted  to  one  of  the  official 
safety certification agencies:

Korea Testing Certification   Keumjung-Dong, Kumpo-City, 
Kyungki-Do +82 314557654

Korea  Testing  Laboratory      Guro-3Dong,  Guro-Gu,  Seoul 
+82 28601366

Korea Testing & Research Institute  Yangji-Myuon, Cheoin-
Gu, Yongin-Si, Gyuonggi-Do +82 316799663

This agency will issue a confirmation letter similar to the let-
ter of declaration.

2.2.3. Safety certification procedure

The safety certification procedure is defined in Article 3.1 of 
the  Electric  Appliances  Safety  Control  Act  (EASCA).  Products 
falling under its scope (see Annex Table 2 of EASCA) are con-
sidered very sensitive on a risk assessment basis by the Ko-
rean government. Korea therefore still maintains a conformity 
assessment procedure based on a test of the products by a 
Korean designated agency.

Pursuant to Article 4 of the ER-EASCA, applicants should fill out 
the electrical appliances safety application form (please use the 
original Korean form, not the English translation provided here 
as  an  example)  and  attach  the  following  documents:  product 
guide (user’s manual), circuit diagram, component list, letter of 
representative in Korea, and submit this set of documents to 
one of the safety certification agencies, providing one prod-
uct sample as well as parts of the appliance that do not have a 
safety certification mark.

The safety certification agency will verify the items and possi-
bly inspect the manufacturer‘s facilities. After 45 days, the ap-
plicant will receive a safety certification number and an electric 
appliance safety certificate.

Exemption for industrial purposes

Ten  products  (identified  on  the  product  list  with  a  *)  can  be 
exempted for conformity assessment if they are used for in-
dustrial purposes based on technical criteria. The safety certi-
fication agency will decide if this condition is granted.

11

3.  Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) certification

3.1.  Korean  regulations  and  standards  for 

EMC

Korean regulations, standards and practices  for  EMC certifi-
cation define the regime applicable to EU imports of electric 
and electronic products (see legal references in paragraph 1.4 
above).  Importers  are  invited  to  check  these  pieces  of  leg-
islation  in  their  original  Korean  version  in  order  to  be  sure 
to comply with Korean law. These regulations, standards and 
practices should comply with commitments of Annex 2-B of 
the EU–Korea FTA with a view to easing certification proced-
ures and avoiding duplication as much as possible.

In line with Article 2 of Annex 2-B, the Korean technical require-
ments  for  EMC  are  in  most  cases  aligned  with  international 
standards  (e.g.  ISO  or  ITU).  As  EU  technical  requirements  for 
EMC  are  also  in  most  cases  aligned  with  international  stan-
dards, this should ensure that obligations are the same in the 
EU and in Korea as a rule. However some deviations may exist 
for certain products. European manufacturers should therefore 
review the Korean legislation and make sure that their products 
comply with Korean technical requirements.

See in Annex 6 the list of Korean standards and the equivalent 
list of international standards on electromagnetic compatibility. 
This  list  may  evolve  as  Korean  law  changes.  It  is  therefore 
provided  only  for  indicative  purposes  and  the  manufacturer 
should check the Korean law.

3.2.  Conformity  assessment  procedures  for 

EMC

Complying  with  relevant  technical  requirements  for  EMC 
is  one  part  of  the  obligations  that  imported  products  must 
achieve. But it is also necessary to prove to Korean authorities 
and/or users and consumers that they do comply with these 
requirements.  This  is  what  is  usually  called  the  ‘conformity 
assessment procedures’.

RRA  notification  on  the  conformity  assessment  of  telecom-
munication  equipment  establishes  two  different  conformity 
assessment  procedures  for  EMC  in  Korea.  Each  product  in 
the scope of the Radio Waves Act and the Framework Act on 
Telecommunications  falls  into  one  of  these  two  procedures, 
depending  on  how  high  the  Korean  authorities  have  judged 
that the risk to human health is.

This is the simplest regime.

Products must be tested in an in-

You  can  find  in  Annex  7  the  comprehensive  list  of  products 
and  corresponding  conformity  assessment  procedures  for 
EMC in the Korean law. Note that this is an in-house English 
translation  of  the  Korean  law,  which  may  evolve.  Importers 
are therefore asked to double-check the latest version of the 
original Korean law to be sure to be up to date.

3.2.1.  Registration of compatibility after in-house 

testing procedure

The registration of compatibility after in-house testing procedure 
is defined in the ‘RRA notification on the conformity assessment 
of telecommunication equipment’. The ‘KCC notification on the 
Mutual Agreement on Conformity Assessment for Telecommuni-
cation Equipment in accordance with the EU–Korea FTA’ provides 
further details for products originating in the EU.

According  to  this  procedure,  the  manufacturer  holds  the  re-
sponsibility to comply with the relevant Korean legislation and 
standards for products under its scope. Manufacturers should 
conduct in-house testing for each model of the appliances re-
garding the Korean legislation and then submit online through 
the RRA website the application form, a letter of confirmation 
verifying compliance with conformity assessment criteria and 
the letter of representation. The documents registered online 
are processed automatically. A notice of registration is then 
automatically issued and must be kept for customs clearance 
purposes.

3.2.2. Certification of conformity procedure

The  certification  of  conformity  procedure  is  defined  in  the 
‘RRA  notification  on  the  conformity  assessment  of  telecom-
munication  equipment’.  The  ‘KCC  notification  on  the  Mutual 
Agreement on Conformity Assessment for Telecommunication 
Equipment in accordance with the EU–Korea FTA’ provides fur-
ther details for products originating in the EU.

According to this procedure, products must be tested by an inde-
pendent laboratory (so called ‘third party’ certification). However, 
pursuant to Article 58, paragraph 2, section 3 of the Radio Waves 
Act,  Korea  provides  a  special  treatment  for  EU  origin  products 
covered by the FTA. Indeed test reports can be performed in EU 
accredited notified laboratories for products of EU origin.

Manufacturers  should  then  fill  in  the  application  form  (see 
the  attached  example;  note  the  original  Korean  form  in  the 
relevant legislation should be used) and submit online the fol-
lowing documents on the RRA website:

—   user’s manual (Korean) with a product overview, specifica-
tions,  included  accessories  (components  of  product)  and 
operating instructions (operation manual) and test report 
issued by the head of a designated testing agency;

—  appearance drawing or front- and rear-view photographs;

—   part-arrangement diagram or photograph: number, speci-

fication, etc. of each part;

Manufacturers should produce and keep in-house the follow-
ing documents:

—  circuit diagram;

—  letter of attorney.

— documents of the application;

— user’s manual;

— in-house test report;

—  appearance drawing: front- and rear-view photographs of the 
product  where  points  for  connection  with  other  equipment 
and conformity assessment labelling are distinguishable;

— part-arrangement diagram or photograph;

— circuit diagram.

In the case of a series model, a list of all series models, elec-
trical  circuitry,  structure,  additional  features  and  documents 
verifying any modifications should be attached.

All  first-time  appliers  must  also  submit  the  conformity  as-
sessment identification code application form. A notice of reg-
istration is automatically issued.

Exemption for research or exhibit purposes

An exemption can be used if a researcher or a manufactur-
er wants to bring a limited amount of products for research 
or exhibition purposes. The applicant shall require permission 
from  the  Korea  Communications  Commission  by  submitting 
an application (see the example) to their website.
