Korea Public Tenders (나라장터) — Government Bid Notices in English

South Korea publishes every public-sector tender through the Public Procurement Service (조달청). Roughly 1,400 new notices go up every day — goods, services, construction and foreign procurement — and the data is openly licensed.

It is also entirely in Korean. Field names, agency names, contract methods, award rules: all of it. And the four procurement categories sit behind four separate endpoints, so "get today's tenders" is four calls, not one.

This Actor does that part for you and returns one normalized English schema. No Korean API key, no portal registration, no Korean required.

What you get

One record per notice, ~58 fields, including:

Group	Fields
Identity	notice_no, notice_seq, unified_notice_no, reference_no
Notice	title_ko, notice_type_ko / _en, category, url
Agencies	notice_agency_ko, demand_agency_ko (+ codes)
Method	contract_method_ko / _en, bidding_method_ko / _en, award_method_ko
Money	estimated_price_krw, allocated_budget_krw, vat_krw, unit_price_krw
Award modelling	award_lower_limit_rate, reserve_price_count_total, reserve_price_count_drawn, price_decision_method_ko
Schedule	posted_at, bidding_opens_at, bidding_closes_at, award_opening_at, qualification_deadline_at — all ISO 8601
What's being bought	purchase_items[], product_class_ko, quantity, unit_ko, delivery_days, delivery_terms_ko
Eligibility	international_bidding, industry_restricted, region_restriction_basis_ko, joint_supply_method_ko
Documents	attachments[] — official notice and specification files

Amounts come back as integers, dates as ISO 8601, yes/no flags as booleans. Common Korean values (contract method, notice type, bidding method) carry an English label alongside the original.

Input

Every field is optional. The default is the last 7 days across all four categories.

Field	Type	Notes
startDate / endDate	date	YYYY-MM-DD, Korea time
categories	array	goods, service, construction, foreign
keywords	array	Match on title or agency. Korean or English
minBudgetKrw	integer	Skip anything below this budget
maxItems	integer	Stop after N results. 0 = no limit

Who this is for

• Suppliers and exporters evaluating the Korean public market — purchase_items and quantity tell you what is actually being bought, not just that a tender exists
• Bid-support and consulting tools that need a clean feed instead of a scraper
• Market researchers tracking public spending by agency, category or budget band
• AI agents that need Korean procurement as structured, English-labelled context

Notes

Source. 조달청 나라장터 입찰공고정보서비스, published on Korea's national open-data portal under an unrestricted licence (이용허락범위 제한 없음). Every record carries a source field and a url back to the original notice.

This is an API client, not a scraper. Data comes from the government's own REST API with a registered key. The g2b.go.kr website is never touched, so nothing here breaks when the site is redesigned.

No personal data. The upstream API returns officer names, phone numbers and email addresses. This Actor removes all of them — from dedicated fields and from free-text fields alike — and never emits them under any setting.

Freshness. Notices appear as the Procurement Service publishes them. Amendments carry changed_at and change_reason_ko.

export G2B_SERVICE_KEY='...'   # data.go.kr 인증키

probe.py는 응답 필드를 src/normalize.py의 FIELD_MAP과 대조하고 sample_response.json을 남긴다. 필드가 어긋나면 조용히 빈 값이 나가므로, 업스트림이 바뀐 것 같으면 먼저 이걸 돌릴 것.

다음에 붙일 것

같은 인증키로 승인된 오퍼레이션이 25개다. 아직 4개(목록 조회)만 쓰고 있다.
