What Is the Korea Property Disclosure and Inquiry Cost Calculator?

This calculator estimates costs for Korean post-judgment asset discovery procedures: property disclosure, property inquiry, and debtor default registry listing. It combines stamp fees, service fees, inquiry institution fees, and representative fees.

These procedures are usually used after a creditor has an enforceable title but does not know enough about the debtor assets to proceed with seizure or collection.

Important Note

Property inquiry generally presupposes the property disclosure procedure under the Civil Execution Act. Filing steps and required documents should be checked against the enforceable title and court jurisdiction.

Procedures

Procedure	Legal role	Cost elements
Property disclosure	Debtor is ordered to disclose assets under Civil Execution Act Article 61	Stamp fee and service fees
Property inquiry	Court inquires with institutions under Civil Execution Act Article 74	Stamp fee, service fees, and inquiry institution fees
Debtor default registry	Listing for non-compliant debtor under Civil Execution Act Article 70	Stamp fee and service fees

Inquiry Fee Structure

Institution	Fee in Korean model
Real estate inquiry through court administration	KRW 20,000
Intellectual property inquiry through KIPO	KRW 20,000
Financial institution inquiry	KRW 5,000 per institution
Vehicle or construction machinery inquiry	KRW 5,000 per institution

Representative Fees

Self filing adds no representative fee in the calculator.
Legal scrivener and lawyer modes multiply the entered per-case fee by the number of selected procedures.
Representative fees are market estimates and are not court fees.

FAQ

Do I need all three procedures?

Not always. A creditor often starts with property disclosure, adds property inquiry when asset location is unclear, and uses the registry route when the debtor refuses or fails to comply.

Are inquiry results guaranteed?

No. They depend on the selected institutions and available records. The procedure can still be useful because it creates official discovery pressure and helps identify enforceable assets.
