In Korea, every business must possess an e-certificate (공인인증서). This electronic identification is essential for interactions with governmental websites, banks, and other entities for company registration verifications.
Typically, the bank provides the e-certificate when a company opens a bank account.
Below, we’ll explain how to download (you first need to “import” the e-certificate into your computer) the e-certificate. Hope it helps.
