How Explera supports the China trade.
Agencies in China sell Korea as a quick getaway: short, repeat breaks of four to seven nights, usually booked inside a short window around school holidays, Lunar New Year and regional long-weekend clusters. Series departures and ad-hoc FIT sit on the same confidential contracts, so you never re-negotiate for volume.
Settlement for Chinese partners runs on agreed credit terms by bank transfer or the B2B portal, with every service line itemised. Deposit and final-payment schedules are sized to your lead times, with secure card and bank-transfer settlement.
Pacing in Korea is tuned to short itineraries for China: early starts to beat the heat, free afternoons, and inspected dinner reservations. Whatever the manifest, the ground team scales to it, and the duty desk answers around the clock.

Asked by agents in China.
Why do Chinese travel agents need a Korea DMC?
A DMC gives Chinese agents contracted net rates, in-country accountability and 24/7 support on local ground time — you keep the client and margin while we run hotels, transfers, guides and excursions.
How fast are quotations for this market?
Most FIT and group RFQs return within 24 hours, fully costed in your working currency; complex MICE programs are scoped within 2–3 business days.
Do you provide language support for China?
English-language account management is standard, and Mandarin, Japanese and Korean guides are assigned to match your clients.
Which parts of Korea do Chinese clients book most?
Chinese clients are matched to the parts of Korea that suit their dates and pace, with seasonality driving the routing.
How do agencies in China settle invoices with Explera?
China partners settle by bank transfer or card in their currency, with written confirmation on every payment; full account details are on the payments page.
Is Explera a licensed, accredited operator?
Yes — Explera operates under KATA membership and IATA accreditation 96215733, with registered entities in Hong Kong and India. Licence numbers are printed on every quotation so your compliance team can verify before contracting.
What is the minimum group size or booking value?
There is none — the same net-rate access covers a two-person honeymoon and a 500-delegate incentive. Most China partners start with one FIT booking to test the service.
Can Explera white-label documents for our agency brand?
Yes — itineraries, vouchers and pickup boards can carry your branding, with Explera appearing only as the ground operator. Your client relationship stays yours.
