South Korea Compliance Reporting
South Korea Compliance Overview

The South Korea Compliance application (app) helps Pharmaceutical Manufacturers and Wholesale Distributors comply with the South Korean government's serialization and reporting requirements.

Use the South Korea Compliance app to search and view various South Korea Compliance reports that have been sent to the Korean Pharmaceutical Information Service (KPIS). See Available Functions below for details.

South Korea Compliance operates with either of the following:
- TraceLink's Serialized Operations Manager: Manages and reports on serial numbers, their corresponding products, and containers. TraceLink integrates serialized product operations with warehouse operations and stores serialized product information in Serialized Operations Manager.
- External Serialization Manager (ESM): TraceLink integrates with external systems of record (SOR). Companies using external systems to generate and manage serial numbers use ESM for transferring external serial numbers and Serialized Operations Manager for sending those reports through TraceLink.
South Korea provides an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) adapter tool, which TraceLink uses to automatically submit reports to the Korea Pharmaceutical Information Service (KPIS).

The South Korea Government introduced the Pharmaceutical Affair Act, Article 45, which outlines serialization requirements for South Korea. The law in it's current state places compliance responsibility on Pharmaceutical Manufacturers and Wholesale Distributors. The law addresses:
- Serialization
- Aggregation
- Reporting
