Project Import is a Kiwi Young Leaders project for members that want to explore importing into Korea from New Zealand.
The group is currently working through the stages of importing into Korea with the goal of learning and experiencing the process first-hand. Areas covered include market research, business and exposure to import procedures such as customs requirements, tariff calculations and storage options.
Here you can find out more regarding Project Import, details for team meetings and the latest updates.
Updates
- We have just started Project Import so we are looking for interested members. If you want to participate in the project or want more information then email kiwi.young.leaders@gmail.com.

More about Project Import
Project Import provides a framework and support for members to learn more about the importing process.
For commited members the end result is a case study of how to import a specific New Zealand product into Korea. Knowledge that could then be used practically, for instance bringing a small amount of a product into Korea.
Members benefit from participating in Project Import through:
- Interaction with individuals and organisations with import experience.
- Meeting other individuals interested in trade opportunities.
- Learning the customs processes.
- Learning customs requirements for various New Zealand products,
- Learning the steps a product takes from New Zealand to Korea.
- Exposure to the government organisations (New Zealand and Korean) that oversee import and export
- Researching the costs of importing, in particular the effect of duties and taxes.
