About BTSDB

BTSDB (btsdb.com) makes the parts of a Korean company that are already public actually checkable. Give it a 10-digit Korean business registration number — or just the company name — and it pulls the official record: whether the business is still trading, what kind of tax invoice it can issue, whether it is licensed to sell online, and roughly how many people it employs. No account, no app, free.

Where the open data stops — the owner and mortgages recorded only in the court register, the tax arrears shown only on a certificate — our document service picks up. That is the one paid part of this site.

How fresh, and how far to trust it

Registration status is at most 24 hours old; company, pension and hospital records are at most 7 days old. Every card shows when it was last fetched, and busy pages refresh automatically each night.

These pages relay open government data. They are not a legal certificate, and figures such as estimated payroll are calculated from published formulas and clearly labeled as estimates. For a contract, a payment, or a filing, confirm through the official channel or your own advisor.
