We finish the build
The AI Framework Act took effect in January 2026. We are preparing the local presence, the filing with the Korean Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT), and establishing the inbound intake process ready to offer the standard of service that our clients have come to expect from Prighter Representative Services.

What a Korean AI Representative does
The Korean AI Framework Act reaches AI business operators that serve Korea from abroad, once their revenue or number of Korean users cross the thresholds set out in the Enforcement Decree.
A Korea AI Representative:
Acts as your appointed domestic representative with an address or place of business in Korea.
Is filed with the Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT) as your local representative.
Carries the operator's accountability for compliance under the Korea AI Framework Act.
Failing to appoint a Korea AI Representative where required exposes you to administrative fines of up to KRW 30 million.
As with our other representation services, Prighter will serve as your local presence, handling the filing, and managing the inbound contact process, so your team can operate from a single dashboard rather than a Korean intermediary.

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.
