FAQ – Corporate Income Tax (CIT) & Coretax for Industrial Companies
Q: How does Coretax affect companies operating in industrial areas? A: Coretax performs automated, real-time validation of tax data. Industrial companies with complex transactions and large data volumes are more exposed to detection of inconsistencies between VAT, CIT, and other tax reports.
Q: Why do industrial companies require specialized Corporate Income Tax handling? A: Industrial operations involve specific costs—such as raw materials, production overhead, depreciation, and logistics expenses—that are frequently subject to fiscal corrections. Proper classification and documentation are critical to ensure deductibility.
Q: Can TGS AU Partners assist if our company has received an SP2DK? A: Yes. We analyze the DGT’s clarification points, prepare professional responses, and assist discussions with your assigned Account Representative (AR) to mitigate potential tax exposure.
Q: What are the main risks of inaccurate Corporate Income Tax reporting for industrial companies? A: Risks include administrative sanctions such as interest penalties (aligned with market interest rates under the Tax Harmonization Law), tax underpayment penalties, and comprehensive tax audits triggered by unexplained discrepancies—especially between VAT turnover and Corporate Income Tax figures.
Q: How should industrial companies manage affiliated or related-party transactions? A: All affiliated transactions must follow the arm’s length principle. Pricing, margins, and fees should reflect market conditions. Companies must prepare Transfer Pricing Documentation to support these transactions.
TGS AU Partners has extensive experience in transfer pricing documentation and advisory services to help reduce tax risks.
Q: What are the risks related to non-deductible expenses in industrial operations? A: Expenses such as donations, employee recreation costs, or costs without sufficient supporting documentation (Nominal Lists) are non-deductible. Improper claims often result in audit findings, tax underpayment, and penalties.
Q: What are the tax risks related to cross-border transactions and foreign vendors? A: Payments for licenses, management services, or royalties to overseas entities are subject to Article 26 Income Tax withholding. Without a valid Certificate of Domicile (DGT Form), companies may be subject to the maximum 20% withholding rate and potential treaty non-compliance issues.
