Korean Business Status (BRN) Live Check — Service Restored

Status: Operational
Effective: Oct 1, 2025 (KST)

The BRN live verification feature is now fully operational again. Following the government data-center incident on Sept 26, live checks against the National Tax Service (NTS) have been restored and are functioning normally in both the web interface and any automated validations you run.

What this means for you

  • You can resume real-time BRN checks within company profiles and search workflows.
  • Historical KOBDi data was unaffected throughout the outage; no action is required on your side.
  • If you previously saw timeout or dependency errors, a simple refresh/retry will clear any cached messages.

For any anomalies you still observe, please contact KOBDi Support with the BRN and timestamp so we can investigate promptly.
