Long-Distance and Near-Distance Water Leisure Activity Reports
The 10-nautical-mile standard distinguishes long-distance reporting from near-distance voluntary reporting
Start with the key point. The 10-nautical-mile standard distinguishes long-distance reporting from near-distance voluntary reporting
Use the 10 NM circle for reporting
Drawing a radius from the departure port makes the long-distance reporting threshold easier to understand.
10 NM is about 18.52 km.
If the plan reaches 10 NM or more, check the long-distance water leisure activity report.
Even nearby trips may use voluntary reporting depending on conditions.
Long-distance report
The Korea Coast Guard guide explains that if you plan to conduct water leisure activity 10 nautical miles or more from the departure port, you must report long-distance water leisure activity to a coast guard or police office. Vessels that have completed port-entry or departure reporting are described as exceptions.
Near-distance voluntary report
Activities within 10 nautical miles from the departure port are described as eligible for a near-distance voluntary report.
Government24 service
Government24 lists the long-distance water leisure activity report as a civil service available online, in person, or by fax, with immediate processing during working hours.
Practical tip
Before departure, prepare not only the report status but also the local station contact, planned return time, and emergency contact flow.
