The verified Korean text — not the English translation — is the source of record.\n\n## Article 32 — Import Prohibition (제32조 수입금지)\n\nUnder **제32조(수입금지)**, the following goods may not be imported:\n\n- designated quarantine goods (*지정검역물*) produced, dispatched from, or transshipped through an import-prohibited area designated and publicly notified by the Minister of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs (*농림축산식품부장관*);\n- pathogens of animal infectious diseases (*동물의 전염성 질병의 병원체*);\n- beef and beef products of 30 months of age or older from a country where bovine spongiform encephalopathy occurred within 5 years from the occurrence date (*소해면상뇌증이 발생한 날부터 5년이 지나지 아니한 국가산 30개월령 이상 쇠고기 및 쇠고기 제품*);\n- specified risk materials (*특정위험물질*).\n\nDespite paragraph 1, the following may be imported (제32조 제2항): goods permitted by the Minister for testing/research or preventive-vaccine manufacture; designated quarantine goods transshipped through a prohibited area by simple call of an aircraft/vessel or in sealed containers on vehicles/trains; animals imported for zoo viewing (only where the Minister separately sets import hygiene conditions; source text truncated at item 3).\n\n(Amendment notes verbatim: 개정 2013. 3. 23., 2013. 8. 13., 2020. 2. 4.; 신설 2013. 8. 13., 2020. 2. 4.)\n\n## Article 36 — Import Quarantine (제36조 수입 검역)\n\nUnder **제36조(수입 검역)**, an importer of designated quarantine goods (*지정검역물*) must promptly apply for quarantine to the head of the animal quarantine agency and undergo the quarantine officer's inspection, as prescribed by Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs Ordinance. A traveler importing designated quarantine goods as carry-on must, immediately upon entry, report at the entry airport/port and undergo inspection. Imported quarantine subjects (*검역물*) are subject to quarantine inspection and may be returned/destroyed if non-conforming.\n\nWhere an epidemiological investigation or precision-test result gives reasonable belief that goods other than designated quarantine goods are contaminated by pathogens of livestock infectious disease, the quarantine officer must promptly quarantine those goods (제36조 제2항). The quarantine officer may also quarantine designated quarantine goods stored in a bonded area without the paragraph-1 application/report or a bonded-area custodian request under Customs Act Article 154 (제36조 제3항; 「관세법」 제154조).\n\n(Amendment / revision notes verbatim: 개정 2013. 3. 23.; 전문개정 2010. 4. 12.)\n\nSource: `pdf-raw/kr-rabies/contagious_prevention_act.txt` — first-hand official Korean text, retrieved 2026-07-24 (W24 Korea first pass).\n","sources":["Feed import declaration under Feed Management Act — Contagious Animal Disease Prevention Act (가축전염병예방법) — import prohibition & quarantine (retrieved 2026-07-24)"],"source":{"authority":"Feed import declaration under Feed Management Act","title":"Contagious Animal Disease Prevention Act (가축전염병예방법) — import prohibition & quarantine","url":"https://www.law.go.kr/lsSc.do?menuId=1&query=%EA%B0%80%EC%B6%95%EC%A0%84%EC%97%BC%EB%B3%91%20%EC%98%88%EB%B0%A9%EB%B2%95","retrieved":"2026-07-24","ref":"","doc_type":"official PDF","source_document":"Korea 가축전염병예방법 (Contagious Animal Disease Prevention Act)","verification_file":"pdf-raw/kr-rabies/contagious_prevention_act.txt"},"source_document":"Korea 가축전염병예방법 (Contagious Animal Disease Prevention Act)","source_file":"pdf-raw/kr-rabies/contagious_prevention_act.txt","trust":{"authority_tier":"T1","fidelity":"verbatim","license":null,"display_grade":"A"},"tokens_estimated":716,"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."}
