Resolution of Economic Disputes: Administrative Reconsideration
III. Administrative Reconsideration Procedure
(I) Petition and acceptance
If an individual, legal entity, or other organization believes that their legal rights and interests have been infringed upon by an administrative action, they may file a petition for administrative reconsideration within 60 days from the date when they become aware of the administrative action, unless the petition period prescribed by law is more than 60 days. Where the filing of a petition is delayed beyond the statutory petition period due to force majeure or other legitimate reasons, the petition period shall continue to be counted from the date of elimination of the cause for delay. A petition for administrative reconsideration may be made in writing or orally. If an oral petition is made, the administrative reconsideration authority shall record the basic information of the petitioner, the request for administrative reconsideration, and the main facts, reasons, and time of the petition. The reconsideration authority shall admit the case if it deems that the case is admissible, or deny the case if it deems that the case is inadmissible.
