Status: in force.\n\nThis Act is the legal basis for pet-food / animal-product import quarantine in the Republic of Korea. Article 32 (Prohibition of Import) flatly prohibits importing certain goods — including those originating from Foot-and-Mouth-Disease-affected countries/regions and infectious-disease pathogens — which is the statutory hook behind the pet-food import-health requirements (cf. MAFRA Notice 2025-20 already in the repo). The claims below are verbatim Korean sentences from the Act as published on law.go.kr.\n\n## Claims (verified C1 substrings of source_file)\n\n- `제32조(수입금지) ① 다음 각 호의 어느 하나에 해당하는 물건은 수입하지 못한다. <개정 2013. 3. 23., 2013. 8. 13., 2020. 2. 4.>` (Article 32 (Import Prohibition) (1): goods falling under any of the following items may not be imported.)\n- `2. 동물의 전염성 질병의 병원체` (Item 2: pathogens of infectious animal diseases — an enumerated prohibited import item.)\n- `3. 소해면상뇌증이 발생한 날부터 5년이 지나지 아니한 국가산 30개월령 이상 쇠고기 및 쇠고기 제품` (Item 3: beef and beef products of 30 months of age or older from a country where BSE occurred, within 5 years from the occurrence date — a prohibited import item.)\n\nSource: `pdf-raw/kr-import/contagious_animal_disease_act.txt` — first-hand Act on Prevention of Contagious Animal Diseases text (law.go.kr), pulled 2026-07-24 via Seoul relay Playwright.\n","sources":[],"tokens_estimated":340,"generated_at":null,"tip":"Use /api/v1/topics to discover more topics. /api/v1/nutrient for precise single-point queries. /api/v1/cross_compare for 2-3 standard comparisons."}
