# Korea GIPA Representative

## Korea GIPA Representative

Digital Governance

The amended Game Industry Promotion Act (GIPA) in Korea requires gaming companies with no address or place of business in Korea to designate a domestic representative once they pass the thresholds in the Presidential Decree. Prighter will soon be launching this service. Register your interest today and we'll be in touch with relevant updates.

## Be first in line for Korea GIPA Representation

This service is being developed. Registering your interest reflects no cost or commitment, and puts you at the front of the queue for our Korea GIPA Representative service the minute it launches.

### You register your interest

Register with your email address and the size of your organisation. No payment, no contract, no obligation.

### We finish the build

The designation duty under the Korea GIPA took effect in October 2025. We are currently establishing our local presence, reporting and disclosure workflow s, and the intake processes so that we're ready to offer the level of service that our clients have come to expect across our other Representative services.

### You hear first

Everyone who registered is contacted before the service goes public, with onboarding and pricing. We cannot promise a date yet — we will tell you as soon as we can.

## What a Korea GIPA Representative does

The Korea Game Industry Promotion Act (GIPA) applies to foreign game publishers and providers that serve players in Korea, even if they don't hold an address or a place of business there.

A Korea GIPA Representative: 

- Acts as your designated domestic representative once you cross the user-count and revenue thresholds set in the Presidential Decree.
- Carries out the reporting duties under Article 31(2) of the GIPA.
- Fulfils disclosure duties under Article 33 of GIPA.

Failing to appoint a Korea GIPA Representative exposes organisations to administrative fines of up to KRW 20 million.

As with our other representation services, Prighter will serve as your local presence, handling reporting and managing inbound intake , so your team can operate from a single, familiar dashboard rather than a Korean intermediary.

Korea GIPA is not live yet, but your obligations elsewhere are. These services run today, from one dashboard and one contract.

## Global Representation FAQs

### Is there a single global Representative requirement?

**No.** Representation requirements are jurisdiction-specific. Each country or region maintains its own legal framework and supervisory authority.

### Can one provider manage representation in multiple jurisdictions?

Separate legal mandates are required in each jurisdiction. A coordinated provider can streamline oversight and management across markets.

### Does appointing Representatives mean full compliance globally?

**No.** Representation fulfils formal legal requirements where applicable. Substantive compliance obligations remain with your organisation in each jurisdiction.

### How do we determine where we need representation?

This depends on where you offer services, process personal data and operate infrastructure. A structured cross-border assessment is the starting point.
