South Korea Import Duty Rates

Korea HS (KHS) — K-PASS Tariff System

South Korea applies customs duty on the CIF value. VAT of 10% is levied on CIF + duty. Korea has FTAs with the US (KORUS), EU, UK, China (CKFTA), ASEAN, and is reviewing CPTPP accession. KORUS provides 0% on most US goods. Korea–EU FTA has eliminated duty on most industrial goods. Korea maintains higher MFN rates for consumer goods and autos, but FTA coverage is very broad.
