- When a sole proprietorship in Taiwan changes its responsible person and transfers inventory or fixed assets, proper invoicing and business tax declaration are required.
- Failure to issue uniform invoices and pay business tax during such transfers can result in penalties for tax evasion.
- The transfer of inventory and fixed assets is considered a sale, requiring the original owner to issue an invoice and pay tax based on market value.
- The new owner can claim input tax deductions using the invoice.
- Voluntary disclosure and payment of outstanding taxes before investigation may exempt businesses from penalties.
