The disposition of imposition of corporate tax and value-added tax on the details stated in the attached Form shall be conducted on March 22, 2012 by the head of the OOO Tax Office to the applicant corporation. The applicant corporation shall re-examine whether the applicant has received the intent of loan at the time of entering into a payment guarantee contract with a foreign financial company in relation to the financial loans of 28 foreign subsidiaries, such as O*SAMCOL*OOOO*OOOOO, etc., on the basis of the difference in interest rates calculated by the relevant financial company in accordance with the intent of the loan, and the tax base and amount of corporate tax and value-added tax shall be corrected accordingly.

1. Summary of disposition;

A. In 2006 to 2010, the applicant firm provided a payment guarantee service with respect to financial loans of 28 overseas subsidiaries such as OO (hereinafter “overseas subsidiaries”) and received 0.15% of the guaranteed amount as a payment guarantee fee, and reported and paid corporate tax.

B. In December 201, the Seoul Regional Tax Office (hereinafter “Investigation Office”) deemed that the applicant corporation calculated the payment guarantee fees for overseas subsidiaries by applying the payment guarantee fee calculation model of the National Tax Service (hereinafter “National Tax Service model”) to receive less than the arm’s length price (the latter applied the payment guarantee fee rate of 0.15 to 2.27% for each overseas subsidiary) and notified the disposition agency of inclusion of the differenceO in the gross income and the imposition of corporate tax, including other details of the investigation. Accordingly, the disposition agency notified the applicant corporation of the inclusion in the calculation of the corporate tax and the amount of corporate tax for the 2006 through 2010 business year, the OO for the 2010 business year, and the OO for the 2007 period from 1 to 2010 for the 2010 taxable year, respectively.

C. The applicant filed an appeal on June 18, 2012.

2. Opinion of the requesting corporation and the disposition agency;

A. The claimant corporation's assertion

(1) While the payment guarantee fee rate of 0.15% calculated based on the expected benefits for the payment guarantee offered by the requesting corporation and the overseas financial company without a special relationship (the reduced interest rate for the overseas subsidiaries under the payment guarantee of the requesting corporation) can be seen as a reasonable price determined in the financial market, the National Tax Service model applied by the agency is different from the method used in the real financial market by measuring the credit rating only based on the simple summary financial data of each overseas subsidiary for the last two years. Based on this, the fee rate calculated by the agency cannot be deemed as an arm's length price applied to ordinary transactions between non-specially related persons, and thus, the tax disposition by the agency is unreasonable.

(2) In addition, in calculating the normal fee rate of the disposition agency, the disposition agency uses confidential data that the taxpayer cannot access and verify, and thus, it is in a situation in which objectivity and transparency in this taxation cannot be ensured, and this is not consistent with Article 5(1)2 of the Enforcement Decree of the Adjustment of International Taxes Act, which provides for “the securing of available data and the possibility of using them,” as the consideration in selecting the arm’s length price calculation method.

(b) Opinions of disposition agencies;

(1) The applicant corporation presented a financial institution’s opinion by asserting that the credit rating of the parent company would have a critical impact on the credit rating of the subsidiary company. However, it is merely an opinion presented by a domestic branch of a foreign bank, which was prepared prior to the loan of the foreign subsidiary, and it is not directly presented the actual credit rating and additional interest rate of the

Rather, the applicant corporation may preferentially apply additional interest rates by actual credit rating of the parent and subsidiary company, but even until now, the applicant corporation does not present such information. This is a proof that the arm's length price according to the National Tax Service model is not higher than the additional interest rates according to the actual credit rating of the parent and subsidiary company.

(2) Although the applicant asserts that the National Tax Service model violated the requirements of “to secure and use data to be used” under Article 5(1)2 of the Enforcement Decree of the Adjustment of International Taxes Act using non-disclosure data, the applicant may preferentially apply the difference in the actual credit rating of the parent and the subsidiary, since the parent and the subsidiary’s credit rating and the additional interest rate can be recognized at the time of a loan transaction by the subsidiary, in cases where the normal payment guarantee price for the subsidiary under the Act on Access to Benefit, which is generally recognized, is the difference in the additional interest rate depending on the difference in credit rating between the guaranteed company and the guaranteed company.

However, since the tax authority cannot secure credit rating of the mother and subsidiary company assessed by the lender as if the claimant is a claim corporation, it is necessary for the tax authority to develop an independent credit assessment model for reporting, verification, and tax source management, etc. As a result, the tax authority borrowed the credit assessment method of a financial institution to realize the most similar situation where the taxpayer does not report the arm's length price according to the actual credit rating if the taxpayer does not report the arm's length price according to the actual credit rating, and thus, it constitutes a "non-liable third party pricing method" under the Adjustment of International Taxes Act. Since information used in this process is based on the standard method based on the financial data submitted by the taxpayer, the argument of the claimant corporation that there is no "the availability and comparison of data" cannot be accepted.

Therefore, this case's disposition imposing tax on the claimant corporation on the difference between the normal rate of the payment guarantee fee by the National Tax Service model and the rate of the fee reported by the claimant corporation is legitimate.

3. Hearing and determination

A. Key issue

The propriety of the disposition of imposing corporate tax and value-added tax on a foreign local corporation which is a related party to the claim because the payment guarantee fee was insufficient.

(b) Related Acts and subordinate statutes: as shown in attached Form;

C. Facts and determination

(1) According to the review data presented by the Investigative Agency, the arm’s length price calculation model, development background, taxation circumstances, etc. are as follows.

(A) Since the overseas related companies of our company are difficult to borrow a single loan or high loan costs in local financing, it is guaranteed by the domestic parent company. On December 18, 2003, the Ministry of Strategy and Finance interpreted that the domestic corporation's payment guarantee in relation to financial loans from foreign related parties constitutes international transactions provided for in Article 2 (1) 1 of the Adjustment of International Taxes Act and is subject to the adjustment of arm's length price under Article 4 of the same Act (re-15). Accordingly, the National Tax Service has notified the foreign related parties of the obligation to report the payment guarantee service transaction with the overseas related parties and has continuously implemented the revised report guidance.

On the other hand, on April 23, 2010, the Ministry of Strategy and Finance interpreted that the provision of debt guarantee and performance guarantee for overseas subsidiaries and the provision of compensation from overseas subsidiaries through foreign exchange banks, the provision of guarantee to overseas local corporations to banks located overseas of the Value-Added Tax Act (amended by Act No. 11873, Jun. 7, 2013) constitutes "services provided overseas" under Article 11 (1) 2 of the Value-Added Tax Act (amended by Act No. 11873, Jun. 7, 2013).

(B) The OECD Transfer Price Taxation Guidelines (Chater V II 7.13) stipulates that payment guarantee with a foreign related party shall be imposed at the arm's length price by classifying it as a service transaction. Article 4 of the Adjustment of International Taxes Act and Article 6-2 of the Enforcement Decree of the same Act also provide the same content.

(C) The arm’s length price for a payment guarantee is, inter alia, the interest cost of a subsidiary that has been reduced by the payment guarantee of the parent company, namely, the additional interest rate (which is determined by summing up the base interest rate on loans, additional interest rate, and adjusted interest rate, and which is changed according to the borrower’s credit rating) depending on the difference in credit rates between the guaranteed and guaranteed companies. However, the National Tax Service did not have a position to calculate the arm’s length price due to insufficient financial information of overseas subsidiaries and the lack of direct use of the credit rating model of financial institutions. As a result, there were cases where the payment guarantee was not reported, and even in the case of reporting, under-reported reporting would be likely to disrupt the equity of taxation.

(D) Accordingly, the National Tax Service, in order to correct the taxation equity problem among companies and to prepare an objective means of verification of the payment guarantee price, developed the National Tax Service model on two occasions by conducting policy research services, transfer price experts, and meetings between major companies, etc., and notified the applicant corporation of the revised report from February 2006. It appears that there was no fact that the applicant corporation filed a revised report by the deadline or submitted the supporting documents for verification of the reported content.

(e) The National Tax Service model is the method of calculating the arm’s length price based on comparable third party pricing method under Article 5(1) of the Adjustment of International Taxes Act, which is a credit rating model based on the financial model generally used by a credit information company or a financial institution (i.e., a measurement model that calculates the financial ratio based on the financial statements and selects and utilizes the financial ratio suitable for computing the credit rating through statistical analysis). The difference in the additional interest in response to the standardized credit rating of the mother and subsidiary is the method of calculating the arm’s length price;

In order to supplement the gap between reality that may arise in the course of standardizing credit rating, ① the credit rating of the mother and subsidiary shall be adjusted by 1 grade in remuneration according to the result of the statistical result that the non-financial factor affects the 1st grade quota, ② the minimum grade shall be applied only to the 9th grade (the lowest level of loan available for a general bank), and the upper limit of normal commission shall be prepared (where the credit rating of a model is below 10 grade, at least 2.82% and the lowest rate of 15.16% shall take effect), ③ the average rate of normal commission shall be presented, ③ the taxpayer reports the difference between the credit rating verified by the borrowing bank and the interest rate corresponding thereto.

(2) In 2006 through 2010, the applicant corporation provided a payment guarantee service to 28 foreign subsidiaries, including the United States, and applied 0.15% of the guaranteed amount as the payment guarantee fee rate, and the disposition agency applied the National Tax Service model to determine the payment guarantee fee rate according to the credit rating difference between the applicant corporation and the overseas subsidiaries and calculated the arm's length price (see attached Form 1).

OO

(3) The Claimant submitted a copy of the letter of intent to loan 18 loans received from a domestic branch of an overseas financial company, etc. by asserting that the rate of the interest on the loan (0.05 to 0.20%) pursuant to the payment guarantee of the Claimant offered by the Claimant at the time of the Claimant’s borrowing of the Claimant’s financial resources (0.05 to 0.20%) is set at 0.15% of the actual amount of the loan and that the rate of the payment guarantee was received by the Claimant at 0.15% of the actual amount of the loan (see the following table 2).

OO

(4) The claimant corporation cannot be deemed to have applied the payment guarantee fee rate calculated by the agency based on the National Tax Service model to ordinary transactions between non-specially related parties. In determining the credit rating of a global company like the claimant corporation in the HSBC, BOA, and CiBk, it merely argues that it is determined at the credit rating level of the parent company considering the parent company’s business relationship with the parent company without considering only the financial situation of the subsidiary company. The above financial institution presented evidence of “documents such as the criteria for credit examination, etc.” submitted to the claimant corporation. This document contains the content as argued by the claimant corporation.

On the other hand, at the meeting of tax judges on December 17, 2013, the applicant corporation stated that the foreign subsidiary of the applicant corporation is not subject to credit rating different for each local subsidiary, but subject to the credit rating of the applicant corporation, which is the parent company, uniformly applied 0.15% of the payment guarantee fee rate of 28 overseas subsidiaries, which is the difference between the loan interest and the loan interest depending on the existence of the payment guarantee. The applicant corporation's intent of the loan presented by the applicant corporation is not granted at the local branch of the overseas financial company in which the actual financial loan occurred, not at the local branch of the foreign financial company in which the applicant corporation actually took out the loan, but it cannot be used as evidence to determine the arm's length price as the documents that the applicant corporation voluntarily received for

(5) As seen above, the Claimant considers that the Claimant received the payment guarantee fee for the overseas subsidiaries under the arm's length price based on the National Tax Service model and imposed the corporate tax and value-added tax. The Claimant asserts that the payment guarantee fee received is reasonable as it is based on the interest decrease rate based on the bank's loan intent and payment guarantee fee received prior to the loan of the overseas subsidiaries.

(A) The tax authority may determine or rectify the resident's tax base and tax amount based on the arm's length price if one of the parties to an international trade, which is a foreign related party, falls short of or exceeds the arm's length price. In the case of a transaction with a related party, the tax authority is obligated to faithfully submit the data and documentary evidence requested by the taxpayer to investigate the arm's length price, and the tax authority is not required to take into account the scope of the arm's length price. Thus, if the transfer price with a related party abroad shows a difference between the reasonable arm's length price and the arm's length price calculated based on the data secured by the tax authority, it is necessary to prove that the transaction price falls within the scope of the arm's length price and it cannot be deemed that the economic rationality is lacking (see Supreme Court Decision 9Du3423, Oct

(B) According to the review data of the investigating agency, the National Tax Service model granted the model score calculated by giving statistical weight to the financial data of the parent and subsidiary up to the 2-year financial year period before the parent and subsidiary compared to the 13-class model score, and calculated the additional interest rate based on the credit rating ratio of the parent and subsidiary computed through the National Tax Service credit rating model, and then granted some adjustment and exception in order to supplement the limit of the National Tax Service model in calculating the difference in the additional interest rate of the parent and subsidiary as the arm's length price for the payment guarantee service. In order to reflect the non-financial factors ( brand value, national risk, etc.) which cannot be measured, the credit rating of the parent and subsidiary was adjusted to the 1-class level in terms of remuneration, by applying the lowest grade to the 9-class minimum grade (the lowest level possible for loans from the general bank). Furthermore, when the taxpayer files a report on the difference between the actual credit rating rate verified by the principal bank and the credit bank, etc., it is recognized as the average fee level.

(C) Article 6-2(4)1 of the Enforcement Decree of the Adjustment of International Taxes Act newly established on February 15, 2013 provides that “The amount of fees calculated based on the difference in the interest rate calculated by the relevant financial company at the time of entering into a guarantee contract (limited to the amount confirmed by a statement on calculation of the difference in the interest rate prepared by the relevant financial company)” shall be deemed as the arm’s length price.

(D) The applicant corporation shall calculate the payment guarantee fee rate as 0.15% on the basis of the difference in interest rates depending on the existence or absence of payment guarantee as stated in the letter of intent for the loan, with the presentation of a letter of intent for the loan from an overseas financial company without a special relationship with the overseas financial company in the event of the loan of the overseas local company. If the loan was actually made in accordance with the letter of intent for the loan, the difference in interest rates depending on the existence or absence of payment guarantee (the decrease in interest rates of the overseas local company borrowed from the financial company) shall be deemed as expected benefits and it is reasonable to determine the payment guarantee fee rate based on the expected benefits, and it is reasonable to regard it as the arm's length price.

However, it is not confirmed that the applicant provided a payment guarantee service for 28 overseas subsidiaries with respect to financial loans from 2006 to 2010, but it has not been presented only 18 cases where the intent of the loan is presented, and whether the applicant has received all guarantee fees from the financial company at the time of the loan, and whether the applicant has received the guarantee fees in proportion to the difference in the interest rate stated in the letter of intent for the loan.
