Overview

Individuals that provide the NTS with “significant information” regarding offshore accounts that results in successful enforcement with monetary sanctions exceeding 20 million won (approximately $18k) may receive a reward ranging from 5% to 15% of the collected sanctions (up to 2 billion won [$1.8M]).
