PLAN C / D — Korea Entity Setup Branch · LLC

Set up an entity in Korea and
KONIVO runs the operations.

KONIVO provides full-service support covering the establishment report, registration, banking, e-commerce, tax, and hiring. Choose the entity form that fits your objectives and situation. A branch (C) for a fast, lightweight setup; an LLC (D) for a complete subsidiary.

Plan C: Branch — 6–12 weeks
Plan D: LLC — 6–10 weeks + 3–5 months
Establishment and operations full-service included

Which structure fits our company?

Choosing the entity form depends on your need for risk isolation, willingness to disclose financials, offline expansion plans, and the size of the capital you can prepare. Use the criteria below to make an initial judgment.

Plan C — Branch
Plan C is right if...
  • Isolating the parent company's legal liability is not your top priority
  • You want to minimize initial capital (no separate capital required)
  • Fast entry into Korea is the goal (6–12 weeks to establish)
  • You are not strongly averse to disclosing financials
  • You want to keep open the possibility of later converting to a full Plan D entity
  • Starting with online channels as the focus, with offline as an optional add-on
The parent company bears unlimited liability for the branch's debts and litigation. If you need risk isolation, choose Plan D.
Plan D — LLC
Plan D is right if...
  • You want to fully isolate the legal risk between the parent company and the Korean entity
  • You do not want to disclose financial statements externally (no annual financial disclosure obligation)
  • You need transfer pricing optimization and dividend structure design
  • You have plans to enter offline channels (Costco, convenience stores, drug stores)
  • You plan to operate long-term as a full Korean subsidiary
  • You can prepare capital of KRW 100 million or more (about $70,000, FX-linked)
LLC registration takes 6–10 weeks, and with Coupang seller approval and raising the account's transfer limit, first revenue comes 3–5 months later.
Typical scenarios where Plan B transitions to C or D
①
Monthly revenue passes $15,000 & offline inquiries begin
When revenue has stabilized under Plan B and you want to expand beyond Coupang to Naver and drug stores. The point at which revenue has grown enough that direct operation and direct contracts become more favorable than Plan B's agency fee structure in terms of unit cost and control. → Transition to Plan C
②
Plan to hire Korean employees + need to isolate the parent company's legal risk
When you want to hire a local team but keep Korean employment risk separate from the parent company. Or when the global legal team requires a "separate entity form". → Transition to Plan D
③
Annual Korea revenue projected above $200K + need for financial non-disclosure
When the CFO is averse to external exposure of financial statements and transfer pricing tax optimization has reached a meaningful scale. → Go straight to Plan D (LLC)

Explanations of common terms

We explain the legal, tax, and administrative terms that appear in Plan C/D.

Apostille (Apostille)
A procedure under the Hague Convention that authenticates the overseas validity of a contracting state's public documents. To use a foreign document in Korea for court registration, bank account opening, and the like, an Apostille certification from the competent authority of the issuing country is required. The issuing authority and the time required vary by country (usually 1–3 weeks).
FDI (Foreign Direct Investment)
Under the Foreign Investment Promotion Act, this is the system for reporting and registering when a foreigner invests KRW 100 million or more in foreign currency in a Korean entity while acquiring 10% or more of the voting shares or equity interest (both requirements must be met). Registering as a foreign-invested company allows you to apply for incentives such as cash grants, local tax (acquisition tax, property tax) reductions, and location support. The corporate / income tax reduction for foreign investment was abolished for applications filed from 2019 onward. The report is filed with KOTRA Invest KOREA or a designated foreign exchange bank. A branch (Plan C) is not FDI but is subject to a branch establishment report under the Foreign Exchange Transactions Act.
Managing member (Managing Member)
In an LLC, this is the person who represents the company and executes its business. It corresponds to the representative director of a joint-stock company. Because the managing member represents the company without a board of directors, the structure is simple. As of 2026, a structure composed solely of pure non-resident foreigners carries a risk of rejection by the tax office, so registering a Korea-resident managing member is recommended.
Transfer pricing (Transfer Pricing)
This refers to the price of goods and services transactions between the parent company and the subsidiary (Korean entity). The National Tax Service may impose tax if the transfer price deviates from the market price (arm's length price). Plan D includes transfer pricing policy development and advisory to support corporate tax and customs duty optimization.
Online Retail Business Declaration
A declaration certificate that operators of online shopping malls must obtain under the Act on the Consumer Protection in Electronic Commerce. It is a mandatory submission document during the onboarding review for major e-commerce channels such as Coupang and Naver Smart Store.
Business Customs Clearance Code
A unique identification number issued by the Korea Customs Service exclusively for import customs clearance. It must be obtained to carry out import customs clearance directly under the entity's name. Under Plan B, KONIVO's code is used on your behalf, but under Plan C/D a code under the entity's name is issued separately.

How do a branch (C) and an LLC (D) differ?

Both structures let you have an independent business entity in Korea and run e-commerce, hiring, and tax. They differ in entity form, scope of liability, and flexibility.

Select a tab to see each plan's unique features, process, and pricing.

Fast establishment — 6–12 weeks
No separate capital is required and no articles of association need to be drafted, so the process is simpler than entity registration. A brand that needs a local presence can start quickly.
Plan D transition roadmap provided
As the business grows from the branch, we provide from the outset a roadmap of the timeline, cost, and procedure for converting to Plan D (LLC). The store accounts are kept as they are.
Optional offline channels
Sales into offline channels such as Costco, convenience stores, and drug stores are an optional add-on. If needed, an engagement fee of $1,000/channel is added to proceed with offline sales.
Caution — parent company unlimited liability
A branch is an extension of the parent company and has no separate legal personality. The parent company bears unlimited liability for the branch's debts and litigation. If you need risk isolation, consider Plan D.

The 4-step branch establishment process

1
Preliminary review and planning (weeks 1–2)
We review the business purpose, scale, hiring plan, and tax structure. After a branch vs. entity comparison analysis, we propose the optimal structure.
2
Branch establishment report and branch registration (weeks 3–6)
We carry out the legal procedures — the foreign company domestic branch establishment report to a designated foreign exchange bank, business registration with the tax office, and court branch establishment registration. Apostille coordination is also processed in parallel at this stage.
3
Building operating infrastructure (weeks 6–10)
Opening a Korean bank account, issuing a digital certificate, setting up the accounting system, office space support if needed, and starting hiring.
4
Channel transfer and start of operations (weeks 10–12)
We transfer the stores and contracts from the existing KONIVO operation (Plan B) to the branch's name. The branch begins independent operation.

What is the difference between a branch and an entity?
A Korean branch (Branch) is an extension of the parent company and has no separate legal personality. It is fast and inexpensive to establish, but the parent company is liable for the Korean branch's debts. A Korean entity (Subsidiary) has an independent legal personality.
Can I hire Korean employees through a branch?
Yes. A foreign company's Korean branch can hire employees under the Korean Labor Standards Act. KONIVO supports all procedures, including enrollment in the four major insurances and drafting employment contracts.
Can I convert to an LLC later?
Yes. We provide from the outset a roadmap for converting from the branch to Plan D (a full entity). We transfer the store accounts and brand assets so you can convert naturally as the business grows.
Why an LLC, not a Joint-Stock or Limited Company?
The LLC is a company form newly created in Korea's Commercial Act in 2012, and it is best suited to an overseas brand's first complete subsidiary.
① Maximum articles-of-association autonomy — you can freely design the internal operating structure through the articles of association.
② Financial non-disclosure — there is no annual financial disclosure obligation. A joint-stock company must publish its financial statements every year.
③ Managing member structure — the managing member represents the company without a board of directors. The structure is simple.
④ Corporate tax and VAT are the same — the tax rates and filing methods are exactly the same as for a joint-stock company.
Financial non-disclosure
An LLC has no annual financial disclosure obligation. It is ideal for a brand that does not want to disclose its financial statements to competitors, partners, or the press.
Offline channels included by default
Sales into offline channels such as Costco, convenience stores, drug stores, and department stores are included by default. No separate engagement fee, placement success fee, or shelf management fee.
Transfer pricing advisory included
Tax strategy advisory is included, covering parent–subsidiary transfer pricing policy development, corporate tax reduction, and dividend structure design.
Transfer to fully independent operation
Once the entity has stabilized, we fully transfer the stores, logistics, and SOPs to the LLC's name. We support you so you can operate independently without KONIVO.

The 7-step LLC establishment process

After May 2026 — stricter tax office review of business registration
Per KONIVO's assessment (2026-05 to 2026-08), some tax offices have rejected entity establishment applications where all three of a non-resident foreign representative + a virtual office address + minimum capital apply at the same time. As this is officer discretion rather than an official notice, the situation may change. KONIVO forestalls the risk with a registered address based on a real address, sufficient capital (at least KRW 10 million recommended), and registering a Korea-resident agent as managing member.

(one VAT filing required)
1
Preliminary structure design (weeks 1–2)
We design the capital size, member composition, transfer pricing policy, and tax structure. We finalize the direction of the LLC articles of association. Per KONIVO's assessment (2026-08), a structure composed solely of pure non-resident foreigners has been rejected by tax offices in some cases, so whether to register a Korea-resident managing member is decided at this stage.
2
Apostille acquisition & home-country document preparation (weeks 2–4)
We coordinate the Apostille authentication of public documents in the parent company's home country (board resolutions, articles of association, passports, etc.). KONIVO provides a checklist and schedule so this proceeds in parallel.
3
FDI report and capital remittance (weeks 4–7)
The foreign direct investment report to KOTRA Invest KOREA (or a designated foreign exchange bank), overseas remittance and domestic deposit of the foreign-currency capital, and opening an account at a designated foreign exchange bank. The bank account opened at this stage is set with a default daily transfer limit of KRW 1.3 million. Raising the limit is done through a separate process.
4
LLC establishment registration & business registration (weeks 6–10)
Court LLC establishment registration (Commercial Act Article 287-5), issuance of the business registration certificate by the tax office, workplace enrollment reporting for the four major insurances, and so on. The Online Retail Business Declaration, Business Customs Clearance Code, and digital certificate are also all issued at this stage.
5
Coupang seller onboarding & e-commerce setup (weeks 8–14)
Entity establishment and Coupang seller approval are separate processes. KONIVO takes full charge from document preparation to account approval and product listing.
6
Operations transfer and team setup (weeks 12–20)
We transfer the stores, contracts, logistics, and 3PL that KONIVO had been operating to the LLC's name. We support local team hiring and onboarding.
7
Account transfer limit increase & fully independent operation (week 20 onward)
After completing one quarter's VAT filing, we apply to the bank to raise the transfer limit. From the point the limit increase is complete, the LLC can effectively operate all channels independently.
The real timeline: "entity registration complete" and "actual revenue" are different
LLC registration takes 6–10 weeks, but once Coupang seller approval, raising the account transfer limit, and product listing are added, first revenue typically takes 3–5 months. KONIVO runs entity establishment and e-commerce setup in parallel to minimize this gap.

What is an LLC?
The LLC is a company form newly created in Korea's Commercial Act in 2012 (Commercial Act Article 287-2). Members are liable only up to the amount they contribute; internally it has the substance of a partnership with guaranteed articles-of-association autonomy, and externally it has legal personality. It is a structure similar to the U.S. LLC. The managing member represents the company without a board of directors, and there is no annual financial disclosure obligation, so financial non-disclosure is possible.
Which is better, an LLC or a joint-stock company?
When an LLC is advantageous: ① when you do not want to disclose financial information externally ② when you have no plans to raise outside investment ③ when you want to freely design the operating structure through the articles of association ④ when you want to operate simply without a board of directors. When a joint-stock company is advantageous: ① when you plan a Korean stock market listing (IPO) or raising outside investment ② when you need to grant employee stock options. As an overseas brand's first complete subsidiary, an LLC is in practice more suitable in many cases.
What is the minimum capital?
Under Korea's Commercial Act, there is no separate statutory minimum capital for an LLC. However, to be recognized as a foreign-invested company (FDI status) under the Foreign Investment Promotion Act, the requirement is KRW 100 million or more in foreign currency + acquisition of 10% or more of the voting equity interest. Per KONIVO's assessment (2026-08), due to stricter tax office review, in practice we recommend capital of at least KRW 10 million.
Does the 2026 stricter tax office review also apply to LLCs?
Yes, it applies equally to LLCs. Per KONIVO's assessment (2026-05 to 2026-08), some tax offices have rejected entity applications where all three of ① a non-resident foreign representative ② a virtual office address ③ minimum capital apply at the same time (not an official notice; officer discretion). KONIVO forestalls this with a registered address based on real office space, sufficient capital, and registering a Korea-resident managing member.
Can I remit freely right after opening the corporate account?
No. A new entity account starts as a bank limited account, with the daily transfer limit capped at around KRW 1.3 million (varies by bank). You can apply to raise the transfer limit by submitting one quarter's VAT filing and payment record to the bank. In practice, it takes another 1–2 quarters (3–6 months) after entity establishment for the limit to be lifted.
Can I transition from Plan B/C to Plan D?
Yes. All KONIVO plans are designed with staged transfer as the default. When you move from operating under Plan B or C to Plan D (an LLC), we fully transfer the store accounts, brand assets, contracts, and logistics to the LLC's name.
Can I later convert an LLC into a joint-stock company?
Yes. Under Korea's Commercial Act, an LLC can be reorganized into a joint-stock company with the consent of all members and court registration. You can convert when a plan for an IPO or raising outside investment arises. KONIVO supports the conversion process at that point.
