Introduction.

Cross-border e-commerce (E-commerce) has been expanding worldwide with Amazon, eBay, Rakuten, Shopify, WooCommerce, and Corona Vortex, and is now the focus of attention by all companies. Cross-border e-commerce has been introduced with the positive aspects of being able to start selling within minutes of creating a site, and new sales opportunities from markets around the world. On the other hand, local taxes and various other costs are not shared much: local taxes such as VAT are levied and collected by the seller on the local buyer, but even in the case of cross-border e-commerce, there are cases of taxation, collection, and reporting.

Not all tax accountants, lawyers, and other domestic professionals have knowledge of overseas tax and legal affairs.

IN THIS COLUMN, OPTI CORPORATION, WHICH HAS EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE IN THE TAX ASPECTS OF CROSS-BORDER EC, PROVIDES A "CROSS-BORDER EC TAX NAVIGATOR" IN A Q&A FORMAT. WE HOPE THAT THIS CROSS-BORDER EC TAX NAVIGATOR WILL BE OF HELP TO VARIOUS COMPANIES CONSIDERING CROSS-BORDER EC.

【Q】ストラクチャードファイナンスの際の税務について支援して頂けますか。

【A】できます。

ストラクチャードファイナンスとは、不動産の購入や巨額な資産の購入の際に利用されることが多い取組です。これらの購入資金については、複数の投資家によってファイナンスされるか、または銀行による投資が含まれている場合があります。

このような場合においては、物件の購入者は新たに組成されたSPC(特別目的会社)であることが多く、どの時点で課税活動が発生したかを気にする必要があります。

当社ではこのようなストラクチャードファイナンスの国際税務を数多く手がけております。是非一度ご相談下さいませ。
