International Trade and Customs
 

As international trade has sharply increased due to Korea entering into Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) with numerous countries, thereby liberalizing trade, it has led to a corresponding increase in the use of trade remedy measures such as anti-dumping, countervailing duties, safeguard measures, among others, and to legal risks in international trade. Due to its industrial and economic development, Korea has been transitioning from being a defendant in trade remedy cases to becoming a plaintiff. Facing these changes, many domestic and international companies have become increasingly exposed to more trade-related legal issues and trade remedy investigations and the companies must thoroughly prepare for and respond  prudently to such matters.

The International Trade and Customs Team of LIN consists of highly skilled attorneys and certified public accountants (CPAs)with in-depth experience in trade-related laws, accounting, and knowledge of the industries affected by anti-dumping, countervailing duties, and other measures as it is essential for the professionals to have a general understanding of not only the trade-related laws but also accounting and the affected industries in order to provide useful counsel about trade remedy cases.
