South Korea Considers Expanding VAT Deductions for Businesses Handling Used and Scrapped Vehicles

  • The South Korean National Assembly is considering Bill No. 2215329 to amend the Special Tax Measures Act.

  • It sets a 7.4% input VAT deduction rate for scrapped vehicles not for export for these businesses.
  • The changes apply to businesses collecting recyclable waste resources and used vehicles, when acquiring from individuals or entities unable to issue VAT invoices.
  • The law would take effect six months after promulgation and apply to scrapped vehicles acquired after that date.
