South Korean Platforms Face Tax Disadvantage Against Global Rivals
The National Tax Service incorrectly processed and sent out evaluations regarding corporate integrity. Thousands of corporations had certain evaluation items omitted due to these errors. The agency had sent the flawed data to various regional offices. This error occurred during the assessment process used as a standard for tax audits. The agency is currently addressing the error and has requested the Media Communications Deliberation Committee to implement deletions and blocks. Authorities plan to continue intensive crackdowns on related issues through October. The source noted that Naver's tax burden was 600 billion won, while Google Korea's was 18.7 billion won. This disparity is described as an uneven playing field for local services. The discussion suggests that regulatory action may be needed to address this tax gap.
