Important points to note:
1. Opening a bank account varies by bank, but you usually have to visit the bank to open an account. Depending on the bank, companies whose sales exceed 3 million euros in the first year may be able to open an account without visiting the bank.
2. Recently, there are many cases where EMI (electronic bank) non-face-to-face account opening is being carried out, but since the transaction fee is higher than that of banks, we recommend using a bank account if you are trading large amounts. (You can open an initial EMI account first and then open a bank account later.)
3. If the shareholder is a Korean corporation, the corporate documents must be notarized with an apostille and then translated and notarized into Czech. Usually, only the business registration certificate is notarized, but additional documents may be required depending on local regulations.
4. Once all the documents are ready, you can send them to our Korean office. After double-checking at the Korean office, the product will be shipped to the Czech Republic.
