KOISRA is proud to announce that we have been listed and approved in the UK Department for Business & Trade (DBT) Export Support Directory for the South Korea market. The Export Support Directory helps UK businesses find and connect with export support experts globally.

The directory is member-access and available here: esd.businessandtrade.gov.uk

DBT’s Overseas Referral Network (ORN) is the list of registered providers hosted on the Export Support Directory platform. 

Our listing followed a screening process led by the DBT Seoul Office team, including meetings and the submission of supporting documentation. DBT representatives also visited our office to meet our members and review KOISRA’s capabilities first-hand.


What KOISRA is registered for in South Korea

KOISRA is registered for South Korea across a broad range of support areas that UK exporters typically require when entering, operating, and scaling in-market. These include compliance and risk management (product safety, regulatory support, QA/QC, risk consultation), legal support (company incorporation, employment, immigration, IP and tax, and data protection/information assurance), and accounting and tax.

We are also registered for key market access needs such as customs services, conformity assessment, local representation, mobility and visas, and SPS-related requirements, alongside business support and operations including cross-border logistics support, warehousing support, facilities/planning coordination, and specialist broker support.

For growth execution, our registration also covers market research and consultancy (market entry research, partner identification, commercial and pricing strategy, long-term planning), marketing, PR and communications (branding, public affairs, digital and social, events, translation/interpretation), and human resources (talent research, payroll, workforce management).

KOISRA’s sector specialist registration includes: Creative, Lifestyle & Learning; Defence & Security; E-Commerce & Retail; Energy & Infrastructure; Food & Drink; Healthcare; Life Sciences & Bio Economy; Logistics & Warehousing; and Tech & Advanced Manufacturing.


We are proud to join DBT’s registered provider network for South Korea and to continue supporting UK businesses with disciplined execution, strong local coordination, and accountable delivery.
As UK exporters expand into Korea, KOISRA will continue strengthening our capability across compliance, market access, and go-to-market execution to help teams move faster and reduce operational risk.
