How to check validity of a category

Summary

Available buyer market: Korean

The following shows how to check if a display category is still valid for use or not.

An existing category might be made unavailable for use as a result of a category renewal or other changes.

Please be noted that the category renewal is conducted twice a year and the category changes resulting from the renewal are notified to the sellers.

As such, you don't need to do this validity check quite often.
