For a South Korean court project, keep the import documentation and the installation drawings aligned from the start. The importing company, local contractor and venue operator need to recognise the same equipment scope even when they use different document formats.
VELNUZ Courts is a Singapore-based supplier of all-glass squash courts, glass back wall systems and padel courts, working with manufacturing partners in China. This guide combines linked official information with practical questions for your project team.
01 / SOUTH KOREA PROJECT GUIDE
Create one component schedule for procurement and receiving
Ask for clear product descriptions covering the court structure, glass, playing surface and any supplied lighting. Use those descriptions consistently in the agreed scope and receiving checklist. A photograph labelled “panoramic court” cannot tell the installer which fittings or electrical items are included.
Identify who will review installation information in Korean and who will manage questions with the supplier. Confirm any translation needs for project documents before handover; do not assume that the website’s language options define the language of the technical deliverables.
02 / SOUTH KOREA PROJECT GUIDE
Coordinate the room before selecting the enclosure
For indoor squash, give the local team a measured room drawing that includes beams, services and changes in floor level. Discuss lighting positions and access for future maintenance alongside the glass layout. If only the rear wall is being replaced, survey the retained surfaces and connections.
For padel inside an existing building, check the whole operating layout, including circulation and access around the court. Ask the responsible local professionals to confirm building and use requirements. A court package is a product supply scope, not approval to convert the premises.
03 / SOUTH KOREA PROJECT GUIDE
Prepare the Korean customs declaration with your importer
Korea Customs Service identifies UNI-PASS as the system used for internet customs declarations and applications. Agree who will make the declaration and which documents they require for the actual goods. KCS import clearance guidance ↗
Ask the importing party to review component classification and any product-specific controls, including those relevant to separately supplied electrical equipment. Do not infer a conformity approval from the court being marketed internationally. Import clearance and acceptance of the installed facility are different checks.
04 / SOUTH KOREA PROJECT GUIDE
Plan receiving and installation as separate milestones
Record the handover location, unloading responsibility and inspection process. For a venue in an occupied building, confirm goods-lift availability and the movement route for glass. Schedule assembly only after the base and service interfaces are ready.
Compare padel systems, all-glass squash courts and rear glass wall packages by the facility requirement. Keep local construction, electrical connection and installation explicitly assigned in the project scope.
BEFORE PROCUREMENT
South Korea court supply: your questions.
Does a Korean-language website mean all installation documents are supplied in Korean?
Document language and translation responsibilities must be agreed for the project. Confirm what the local designer and installer require before ordering.
Can customs clearance be treated as acceptance of the completed court?
No. Clearance of the shipment and local review of the installed facility are separate parts of the project.
Discuss a court project in South Korea.
Provide the Korean site address, room or site plan, component access route, required document language, importing party and contractor responsibilities.
