ECCK calls for easing EV regulation, predictability in defense trade

The European Chamber of Commerce in Korea (ECCK) has recommended that Korean authorities ease regulations on electric vehicles (EVs) and improve predictability in the defense offset system in its annual white paper. The ECCK, through its industry committees, regularly discusses regulatory issues with the Korean government and publishes its white paper annually to convey concerns and recommendations from its member companies.

This year’s edition contains 82 recommendations from 15 committees and three forums. ECCK Passenger Vehicle Committee Chair Kim Hong-joong urged Korea to better align its EV regulations with international standards, citing the need for improvements in electric vehicle certification and assessment procedures, as well as greater harmonization with and mutual recognition of international standards for advanced automotive technologies.
