KSFTA's services commitments are outlined in Chapter 9. It is based on a negative-list approach, where all sectors are a priori committed except for those sectors or measures listed down in Annex 9.

For Singapore companies, KSFTA provided improved commitments in the following sectors:

Education sector, in particular, in the areas of language education, certified language programmes like TOEFL and TOEIC, corporate training and service quality programmes.

The environmental services market is open in the areas of industrial waste treatment and refuse disposal services, environmental testing and assessment services, and recycling services.

Contract manufacturers could engage in services that support the manufacture of machinery (office, computing, electrical), communications equipment, medical precision and optical instruments, rubber and plastics products.

Singapore service suppliers are given access to the Korea's courier services sector to complement each other as hubs in their respective regions for courier and logistics services.
