There are people who usually like to see and buy in person, but I think there are also people who shop online because they are bothered or shy. In addition, these days, more and more people are using direct purchase to purchase items sold only abroad or even the same product at a slightly cheaper price. We will inform you about issuance, inquiry, and correction of personal customs identification number, which is essential information that first-time users are missing, and useful if you know it for later.
What is Personal Customs Unique Code? 개인통관고유번호 모바일 발급
This is a system that can be used instead of resident registration number to prevent leakage of personal information. To put it simply, in Korea, a resident registration number to prove identity is used, but in foreign countries, the method is different and the collection is not permitted because it is important personal information. Instead, it means a number you give to identify yourself. Ba
sically, you can apply and manage through the website or mobile customs office. Now I will explain how to create it. It doesn’t take long, so if you need it, try it once 🙂
Issuing a unique customs clearance number 이베이스매뉴얼
You can enter UNI-PASS and move on, but to enter a little faster, you can press the shortcut that appears at the top when you enter your personal customs uniqueness in the search box.
Then, when the page opens like this, two menus will appear at the same time. If you are a first-timer, please go to <New Issue> here.
Then, select one of mobile phone authentication, joint/financial authentication, and simple authentication, and fill in the blanks to proceed with real-name authentication.
If there is an existing one, a pop-up window informs you that it has already been issued. In case of mobile phone authentication, it is convenient because you can simply do it through the pass app 🙂
When the verification is complete, fill in the blanks on the screen such as the address and phone number to receive the parcel.
Then, scroll down and check the collection and use and consent to access. If you want to be notified when an export/import report occurs or changes occur to your number, check <option> and click <registration>, you will see 13 digits starting with P on the next page 🙂
Personal customs identification number inquiry
I had something to write this time, so when I tried to apply, it came out that it already exists as I saw above. If you can’t remember whether you made it like me or not, or if you have already received it and forgot it, please enter the inquiry on the left side of the main screen this time.
You will need to verify your identity here as well, so you can choose the method you want and proceed. For reference, it says that you need to install a separate security program for joint/financial certificates.
If you select a mobile phone, you only need to enter the phone number like this, and then enter only the six-digit number written on the text message that is sent when you click Send. I chose this method because there are cases where it doesn’t work well with KakaoTalk, but I think you can do it with something that’s convenient for you.
If you skip it, you can see the 13-digit number assigned to you at the top of the screen like this. There is a <Copy> button just below it, so if you need to, you can copy and paste it as it is, even if you don’t memorize it. If you have moved and your home address has changed or your phone number has changed, please enter <Change> at the bottom right corner when you search.
Reissuance of personal customs identification number
Then you will see a screen like the one above. You can edit your address and phone number here. If you have been stolen or are anxious, you can apply for suspension in <Use or not>. If you want to reissue, check the Reissuance of Personal Customs Unique Number here.
Lastly, if you download the <Mobile Customs Service> app, you can do everything from new to reissuance and information modification on your smartphone in the same way!
If you have plans to use direct purchase in the future, but do not have it yet, I hope that you can proceed safely through the issuance of the personal customs clearance number that I announced today. Thanks for reading:)
If you are a reasonable consumer through direct purchase, you have already completed the issuance of a personal customs number and are using large global shopping malls such as Amazon, Alibaba, eBay, and East Bay. The correct name should be ‘sign’ instead of ‘number’. This is because the letter ‘P’ is attached to the individual.
What does it mean and why do you need it? It is used to prevent leakage of personal information of citizens. It can be easily understood as a kind of ID issued by the Korea Customs Service to be used in customs instead of a resident registration number. It is absolutely necessary when purchasing overseas, and anyone can easily make it if they have a mobile phone in their name. (No age limit)
Use the mobile app whenever possible!

It is available on both PC and mobile devices (ex. smart phone, tablet). In this text, guidance is provided based on a dedicated app called ‘Mobile Customs Service’. It can be installed from ‘Google Play’ and ‘App Store’. If you do not want to install the app, you can enter ‘Issue Personal Customs Code’ in your mobile web browser, access the Unipass site, and follow the text. The process is 100% consistent. Then why do you need to install the app? This is because it is more secure in terms of personal information security.
Personal customs identification number issuance and inquiry is done in one menu without separate membership registration. If there is no code assigned to you through real-name authentication, the issuance process proceeds, and if there is one that has been previously issued, the corresponding information is displayed on the screen. Please note that currently, verification is only possible through the authentication of the smartphone name, which was introduced as a preparation in the beginning. I wonder if this process can be shortened a bit by using a joint certificate.
Just enter your name, password, and mobile phone number. Then you will receive a text message from the customs office with a verification number. You can enter it within 5 minutes. If a text message arrives within 30 seconds and there is no problem receiving it after 1 or 2 minutes, it is recommended to check the spam box first rather than pressing the resend button.
Once authentication is complete, you will see one of two screens. If you have already issued a personal customs identification number in the past, you can immediately check the value of the sign starting with ‘P’ as shown in the picture above. You can register this value on the direct purchase site or the delivery site site.
You can also edit personal information such as address and email address on this page, so please update it if there is any change.
Conversely, if it has never been created, a screen for entering information necessary for issuance is displayed. Just fill in the details and you’re done! That’s all.
One thing we can learn from the process so far is that it is unique information that matches 1:1 with the resident registration number. This means that you have to manage it well so that it is not exposed to others.
And unlike in the past, from December 1 of last year, even in case of simple customs clearance, the submission of the unique customs code introduced in today’s text was made compulsory. So, in any case, you need to prepare in advance for direct ball.
Today, we are going to look at how to inquire about the issuance of a personal customs identification number, which can be said to be the beginning of overseas purchases. With the gradual development of global distribution services and the development of the Internet, direct purchase has become very easy. It is now possible to obtain items that cannot be obtained in Korea or items that are sold at a lower price abroad through direct purchase than before. Due to this trend, I think many people will know a lot of related information, but there are definitely those who are just starting out.
To purchase products abroad, you must obtain and enter a unique customs clearance code. Since this is a government-issued number, you can think of it as a task that can only be done on a PC. But you can do it on mobile too.
First, go to the Personal Customs Identification Number issuance page of the Korea Customs Service through the search bar. When you go to the site, two options appear on the first page. This time, please go to New Issuance.
Because it is a code to identify an individual, real name authentication is required before issuance. We support a variety of methods, so please choose the method that is convenient for you.
After authentication is complete, you can issue an issuance immediately by entering your name, resident number, and address. If you have already received a number, a pop-up appears indicating that you will be redirected to the inquiry page. You may have forgotten your number after receiving it, but you can look it up right away like this.
What you need to know is that a real name verification process is required for issuance and inquiry of a unique customs clearance number!
The above method is available on both PC and mobile. And if you install the Customs Service app, you can proceed with the procedure more conveniently on your smartphone. Search the mobile customs office in the store and get it. Here, both the issuance and inquiry of a personal customs clearance number are possible.
After the installation is complete, several options appear on the first page. A unique customs clearance code button is located in a prominent spot. Just click on it and follow the same process as above. The visuals are slightly different, but the content is all the same.
Because the number is not short and it is not used as often in daily life like the social security number, so even if you memorize it, you can’t help but forget it naturally. I often
