Korea

First American’s Korean title operations allow you, as a company or investor, to buy a policy insuring an investment in Korea, and to know that the coverages will be interpreted under the local law identified in the policy.

The process is simple, because you can purchase a First American Korean Title Insurance Policy at home, rather than in Korea, and the language of the policy is straightforward and clear. Nonresident investors and corporations will appreciate the ease with which they can get First American's title protection.

Each policy is backed by First American’s obligation to provide a defense for covered matters in a court of law. This means that First American will stand by you in response to these challenges to your title. You simply tender your claim to the First American office where your policy was issued, or as otherwise instructed in the policy, and First American will take it from there, defending your property rights as insured in Korea.

First American’s Korean Policies provide protection that would be otherwise unavailable in the Korean market, including our survey endorsement to protect against encroachments and other off-title defects, as well as our commercial lease protection endorsement to protect against claims arising from unregistered leases.
