Certified Notice Generator (Korea)
Auto-generate 9 types of Korean certified notices (wages, rent, deposit, termination, etc.).
About this tool
Certified Notice Generator (λ΄μ©μ¦λͺ ) is a free drafting tool covering 12 Korean dispute scenarios β unpaid wages, jeonse deposit return, goods payments, loans, noise, defects, and more. Enter the facts, amounts, and deadlines, and the tool produces a body that auto-cites the right statutes (Labor Standards Act, Civil Act, Housing Lease Protection Act, Installment Transactions Act). Output is compatible with Korea Postβs e-naeyongjeungmyeong (service.epost.go.kr) format and uses neutral phrasing capped at "we may pursue legal action" to avoid criminal-threat or counter-suit risk. It also recommends a reply window (default 14 days) and next steps (payment order, civil action, labor-board complaint). All inputs stay in the browser and are never sent to a server.
Use cases
Scenario 1
Wage / severance arrears
A worker drafts a 14-day demand for unpaid wages or severance, then prepares matching evidence to file a Ministry-of-Labor complaint if the employer ignores the notice.
Scenario 2
Jeonse deposit return demand
A tenant whose deposit is still unreturned after the lease ends sends a 30-day demand notice β used as evidence for jeonse-right registration or HUG/SGI insurance claims.
Scenario 3
Goods / service receivables
For SMBs and freelancers chasing unpaid invoices, a 14-day notice triggers statute-of-limitations interruption and serves as evidence for a follow-up payment-order petition.
Scenario 4
Personal loan recall
A creditor who lent money to an acquaintance sends a notice (with promissory note and transfer history) so a follow-up civil claim within 6 months keeps the limitation tolling.
Scenario 5
Noise / defect remedy request
For ongoing noise from a neighbor or unrepaired construction defects, send a fact-only notice requesting remedy and signaling possible damages claims.

Frequently asked
- Q. Does the notice itself have legal force?
- A. No. It only proves who sent what when, via Korea Post. Enforcement requires separate litigation. Still, the tolling effect, delivery evidence, and psychological pressure resolve more than 80% of disputes at the notice stage.
- Q. What if the recipient refuses to accept it?
- A. Refusal can be deemed "delivered" (Supreme Court 98Da41739). Keep the returned envelope, re-send to addresses on the property register or business/resident registry, or consider service by publication.
- Q. How long should the reply window be?
- A. Practice norms: 7β14 days for money demands, 14β30 days for wages or deposits, 30β60 days for performance of goods/services. The default is 14 days.
- Q. How long does the tolling effect last?
- A. Under Civil Act Β§174, the tolling effect is preserved only if you follow up within 6 months with a court claim, attachment, or provisional seizure.
- Q. Can I include coercive language?
- A. No. Threats of doxxing or reporting to a third party can trigger criminal-coercion or privacy-law liability. The safe ceiling is "we may pursue legal action," which is what the templates use.
