The plaintiff asserts that the disposition of this case is unlawful on the following grounds.
1)** The instant tax invoice is not false, since the Mex actually purchased scrap metal from AA resources and paid the price.
2) Even if the tax invoice issued by AA resource is different from the fact, ****** Mustra was unaware of the disguised name of Dustraps as AA resource, and there was no negligence on the part of failing to know that it was the disguised name, and the input tax amount of the instant tax invoice should be deducted from the output tax amount.
(b) Related statutes;
It is as shown in the attached Form.
C. Determination
1) Whether the instant tax invoice constitutes a false tax invoice
Article 17(2)2 of the former Value-Added Tax Act (amended by Act No. 11608, Jan. 1, 2013; hereinafter the same) provides that input tax shall not be deducted from the output tax amount if the entries of a tax invoice are different from the facts. It means that the entries of a tax invoice are different from the facts. In light of the purport of Article 14(1) of the Framework Act on National Taxes that provides that where the ownership of income, profit, calculation, or transaction subject to taxation is only nominal, and there is another person to whom they actually belong, the person to whom the tax invoice belongs shall be liable for tax payment and the other person to whom the necessary entries of the tax invoice are to be entered shall be applied, regardless of the formal descriptions of the transaction contract, etc. prepared between the parties to the goods or service, the person to whom the tax invoice was actually supplied, and thus, the person to whom the tax invoice was supplied shall be acknowledged as having been registered as having been registered as a business operator of the above rap 2, 4, and 5, 000.

(1) Article 17 (2) 1-2 of the former Value-Added Tax Act provides that the input tax amount shall not be deducted or refunded from the output tax amount if the necessary entries under subparagraphs 1 through 4 of Article 16 are entered in the tax invoice. Thus, even if an entrepreneur and a supplier on the tax invoice were to have been issued, the input tax amount shall not be deducted or refundable, but may be deducted or refundable from the output tax amount unless he was negligent in not knowing such fact. (See, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2013Du6527, Jul. 25, 2013).
