Administrative Procedure Act Article 103

No opportunity for statement of opinions is required to be given by an administrative authority in any of the following circumstances:1. Where the disposition is one of the same kind rendered en masse;2. Where the situation is so pressing that offering of an opportunity to state opinions will obviously be against the public interest;3. Where limitation of the statutory period would make it obviously impossible to act accordingly even if an opportunity to present opinions were given;4. Where the actions are taken in the course of administrative enforcement proceedings;5. Where the facts based on which the administrative disposition is rendered are objectively clear enough to be firmly established;6. Where the degree and extent to which freedom or right is restrained are obviously minor to the extent that there is no need to hear in advance the opinions of the person subject to the disposition; 7. Where the person subject to the disposition is required by law to file an application to an administrative authority for review, opposition, reexamination, reconsideration or any other prior proceeding before an administrative appeal may be instituted; or 8. Where the disposition is a preventive junction or a ne exeat republica issued legally for the purpose of preventing the person subject to the disposition from concealing or transferring his assets or absconding from the nation.
