Commercial lease transactions in South Korea require landlords and real estate agents to disclose specific information to prospective tenants. In addition to the standard property disclosures, commercial leases involve unique considerations around converted deposits, permitted uses, and key money.
Landlord Disclosure Obligations
Pre-Contract Disclosures
Commercial-Specific Disclosures
Property Confirmation and Explanation Document
When a licensed real estate agent brokers the transaction, the agent must prepare and deliver a detailed confirmation document covering:
| Rights | Owner, mortgages, seizures, liens | | Use restrictions | Zoning, urban planning limitations | | Facilities | Electricity, water, gas, HVAC, fire safety | | Management | Fees, repair reserve fund, management method | | Transaction terms | Deposit, rent, key money (if applicable) |
Commercial-Specific Agent Obligations
- Business type restrictions — notify if building rules or zoning prohibit certain businesses
- Business licensing feasibility — whether the location supports required permits
- Illegal construction status — unauthorized additions or use changes
- Nearby development plans — redevelopment or reconstruction projects
Key Money Disclosures
A separate key money agreement specifying the type (facility, business, location) and amount is recommended.
Best Practices for Landlords
- Verify building register status — business registration may be denied for illegal constructions
- Explain converted deposit implications — affects the scope of tenant protections
- Disclose permitted use restrictions — prevents post-contract disputes
- Itemize management fees transparently — distinguish common charges from individual charges
- Address key money clearly — document 10-year renewal period and key money recovery rights
