What you want to know?

Since 2014, producers from countries that do not have an organic product equivalence or trade agreement with Korea need to certify their products according to Korean organic regulations if they want to sell organic products in the Korean market.

Farmers, producers and organic product processors who wish to export their organic products to Korea must have a certificate according to the Organic Certification System (KOC).
