D. Determination
1) Additional tax under tax law is an administrative sanction imposed in accordance with the tax law in order to facilitate the exercise of the right to impose taxes and the realization of a tax claim where a taxpayer violates a return, tax liability, etc. under the tax law without justifiable grounds, and the taxpayer’s intention or negligence is not considered. However, if a taxpayer is not aware of his/her duty, and there is a circumstance where it is unreasonable for him/her to reasonably present his/her duty, or where it is unreasonable for him/her to expect the fulfillment of his/her duty to do so, or where there is a justifiable reason to believe that the taxpayer is not aware of his/her duty (see Supreme Court Decision 2004Du930, Nov. 25, 2005, etc.).
2) Considering the following circumstances revealed in light of the aforementioned legal principles, it is reasonable to deem that there was a justifiable ground for not being negligent in the Plaintiff’s breach of duty in the return of value-added tax on the instant tax invoice, and that the instant disposition was unlawful.
① The instant transaction was basically processed by Nonparty 1 in order to avoid returning his/her own debt, and was conducted in accordance with Nonparty 1’s fraud. Nonparty 1 was unaware of the fact that the instant transaction was processed. In addition, Nonparty 1 had a person in charge of duties at the logistics center, who was in charge of duties at the logistics center, and had him/her prepare false cargo loading and confirmation, thereby making it impossible for the purchasing agency, such as the Plaintiff, to properly confirm the movement of goods.
② Due to its nature, electronic commerce is to utilize a virtual store; actual logistics transfer is directly transferred from the first supplier without going through an intermediate stage, and thus, it is not confirmed at each stage whether goods are delivered or received, unlike traditional commercial transactions. In other words, the transaction goods are directly transferred from the small and medium enterprise distribution center to the third party, and there is no objection that there is a problem in delivery of goods from the third party i.e., the Plaintiff is able to confirm the details of the transaction, confirm the transaction price, and check the transfer of goods from the transaction goods other than the deposit.
③ The business partner who purchased the product by the Plaintiff was a corporation that was made by the Small and Medium Business Corporation by investing 100% in the Small and Medium Business Distribution Center, and it was difficult to expect that the transaction was made by the Plaintiff as a corporation that was made by the Small and Medium Business Corporation by the Small and Medium Business Distribution Center. The Plaintiff was caused to the instant transaction at the request of the change in the sales place of the Small and Medium Business Distribution Center, and the Plaintiff was not deemed the third party at the Small and Medium Business Distribution Center, but was difficult to specifically doubt the reasons for the transaction through the Plaintiff. The Plaintiff was sufficiently responsible for the instant transaction with the Small and Medium Business Distribution Center for the purpose of expanding other transactions between the Plaintiff and the Small and Medium Business Distribution Center. In addition, the Plaintiff received the fee as it was similar to the other transaction. In addition, the Plaintiff did not have any profit or tax avoidance other than
④ The instant disposition basis was a de facto processing transaction. Since the Plaintiff did not verify whether the instant transaction was a processing transaction, the Plaintiff was presumed to have known of the fact that the instant transaction was an actual processing transaction. In the instant case, there is no evidence to know the details of the transaction, such as the content of the transaction by a person in charge, the issuance of a tax invoice at the stage of the transaction, and the confirmation of the receipt of the goods, it is difficult to readily conclude that the Plaintiff, even being aware that the instant transaction was a processing transaction, received a fee by participating in the transaction.
3. Conclusion
Therefore, the plaintiff's claim is reasonable, and it is decided as per Disposition by admitting it.
