ABK provides accounting, payroll and related corporate support for foreign businesses operating in South Korea, with service delivered in English from day one.
ABK operates as an outsourced back-office partner for foreign companies in Korea, helping them manage the regulatory and administrative requirements of operating in a complex local market.
ABK´s core services include bookkeeping and financial reporting, payroll and social insurance administration, tax compliance support and VAT filing, as well as practical support in areas such as inventory control, cash management, SAP localization, and administrative coordination with government bodies.
ABK delivers these services through a team of more than fifteen professionals, all of whom speak English and bring multiple years of accounting experience along with the relevant academic degrees. This makes ABK particularly well positioned to support international clients that need both accuracy in accounting processes and reporting, as well as clear communication.
For each client ABK designates a dedicated English-speaking accounting team which acts as a primary point of contact. ABK’s service model is built around the needs of cross-border businesses: communication is handled in English, reporting is structured for both Korean compliance and overseas headquarters, and documentation can be provided in both Korean and English.
ABK works flexibly with all major ERP systems, including SAP, and emphasizes fast response times, proactive compliance monitoring, and practical support tailored to the realities of doing business in Korea.
For foreign companies, ABK can reduce the risk, delay, and confusion often associated with Korean accounting, payroll and local requirements. ABKs clients gain a partner that understands both the local regulatory environment and the reporting expectations of international management teams.
This matters because it allows clients to focus on running and growing their business while ABK handles critical back-office functions with clarity, reliability and transparency. In practice, ABK offers not just administrative support, but serves as a long-term operational partner for companies building or expanding their presence in Korea.
