Crucial Tax Deadlines in July: Stay Updated and Fulfill Your Obligations

 

 

1.Withholding tax filing(7/10)

When you pay your employees a salary, it is your responsibility to deduct taxes from their salary before paying them.

 

*For example, if your employee has a contracted salary of 2,000,000 KRW, you must deduct 100,000 KRW for taxes, and pay your employee 1,900,000 KRW. The 100,000 KRW you deducted must be reported on a withhold tax return and paid to the tax office on behalf of your employees.

 

The deadline for filing the withholding tax return is the 10th day of the following month after the payment was made. So, if you paid salaries to your employees in June, you must file the withholding tax return by July10th.

 

It's important to understand that the requirement to file a withholding tax return is not limited to salary payments. Any payment that requires taxes to be withheld must be reported on the withholding tax return.

 

*For instance, if you paid a loyalty payment to a foreign entity, you must also withhold taxes and report the payment on the withholding tax return.

 

2.Securities transaction tax paymenf (~7/10)

When you sold shares(stock), you have to pay Secutities transaction tax as well as capital gain taxes for the cpaital gain.

In July, every business entity regardless of business type(corporation / individual business).

 

But for corporation, which already filied their 1Q(Jan~Mar) VAT, only have to file for 2Q(Apr~Jun).

*but the point is, if you miss some tax invoices which should be included in 1Q VAT filing, you can put that in this month's VAT filing.

 

For individual business owner, which hadn't  filie for 1Q VAT,  they have to file VAT from Jan to June.
