Based on an exchange rate of 8.484005 KRW/JPY, and calculated for import into Korea — not the United States. There is no Korea–Japan agreement rate applicable to cars, so duty is calculated at the standard 8%. American and European brands shipped from Japan are also dutied at 8%, because the direct-consignment rule bars the FTA 0% rate. Certification assumes individual certification (₩2,500,000) and drops sharply if the same model already has a certification history. Korean acquisition tax, due at registration, is not included in this total.
