Packing list for South Korea: what and why
The packing list describes how a shipment is packed: number of packages, marks and numbers, dimensions and weights. Customs officers use it to inspect cargo, and chambers use it to support the certificate of origin. The exporter prepares the packing list on letterhead, showing packages, marks, net and gross weights for each item.
Importers across Asia increasingly verify origin and value documents before clearance, and some still ask for paper documents with embassy stamps.
Authorities, banks and business partners in South Korea usually ask for a legalised packing list for physical inspection at customs, supporting the certificate of origin or insurance and cargo claims.
A packing list issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. South Korea accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.
