Terms of Use

What this service is

Korean Public Tender Search is an independent tool that makes publicly available Korean government procurement announcements searchable in English. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the Public Procurement Service of Korea, 나라장터, or any government body.

No warranty on accuracy

Listings are reproduced from a third-party open API and matched using machine translation. Results may be incomplete, out of date, or imprecisely matched, and translation may not capture the meaning of the original Korean. The site is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind.

The official announcement published on 나라장터 is the authoritative source for every tender. Do not rely on information here for bidding decisions, deadlines, eligibility, or contract values without confirming it against that official announcement.

Not professional advice

The guides on this site are general background information about Korean public procurement. They are not legal, financial, or procurement advice, and should not be treated as a substitute for professional advice about your specific circumstances. Rules, thresholds, and requirements change.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the operator of this site is not liable for any loss arising from use of, or reliance on, the site — including missed tender opportunities, unsuccessful bids, missed deadlines, or decisions made on the basis of information presented here.

Acceptable use

You may use this site for lawful purposes. Please do not attempt to disrupt the service, place automated load on it that interferes with other users, or use it in a way that breaches the terms of the underlying data source. Automated bulk collection is discouraged; the Public Procurement Service publishes the same data through its own open API at data.go.kr, which is the appropriate route for programmatic access.

Content ownership

Tender announcement data originates from the Public Procurement Service of Korea and remains subject to its terms. Original written material on this site, including the guides, belongs to the site operator.

Advertising and third parties

This site displays third-party advertising and links to external sites, including official government pages. It is not responsible for the content of external sites or advertisements. See the Privacy Policy for how advertising cookies are handled.

Availability and changes

The service may be unavailable, modified, or discontinued at any time without notice, including where the underlying data source is unavailable. These terms may be updated; revisions will be posted here with a new date.
