    セミナー参加された方へお送りしています。 

    ■ ご挨拶 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━・・・・・‥‥‥………

    P&Aグラントソントンジャパンデスク川原田です。

    6月30日、フィリピン新政権が誕生し、国内・国外からの期待が高まっております。我々会計事務所も、会計税務、ビジネス環境の変化について、適時な情報のキャッチと発信に努めてまいります。

    ****今月のトピックス*****

    1. 新BIR長官の通達:2016年6月前BIR長官下で発布された通達及び税務調査の一時的な停止

    2. 8月2日(火)フィリピン法人経営管理セミナー案内

    3. 会計・税務記事のお知らせ

    4. 編集後記 

    ■ 1.新BIR長官の通達:2016年6月前BIR長官下で発布された全ての通達の一時停止及び、今後の税務調査の一時的な停止(Revenue Memorandum Circular Nos. 69 and 70-2016) ━━━━・・・・・‥‥‥…

    新BIR長官に就任したセサール・ドゥライ氏が、就任当日に、前BIR長官 キム・ヘナレスの下、2016年6月に発行された通達の効力を一時的に停止する旨を発表しました。

    ただし、停止期間については言及がなく、本ニュースの内容も日に日に変化する可能性があるので、各企業でご利用の会計事務所にお問い合わせ下さい。

    特に、従来の租税条約申請手続きが簡素化される旨の通達については、外資系企業にとっては嬉しいニュースであったのですが、今回の新長官の通達により、効力が一時停止となったため、従来のガイドライン(RMO No.72-2010 )に基づき、必要書類を揃え、最初の源泉税支払い発生時の前に、申請をするべきと考えられます。

    また、同日7月1日発行のRMC No.70-2016の通達で、今後の税務調査の一時的な停止することを発表致しましたが、こちらも、停止期間については言及がなく、該当する企業の方は、ご利用の会計事務所にお問い合わせされることをおすすめ致します。

    また弊社記事(英語)にも詳細が御座いますので、フィリピン人経理の方にご説明が必要な方は、ご利用下さい。

    ■ 編集後記 ━━━━・・・・・‥‥‥…

    PEZA長官を21年間務めたデリマ長官が退任されました。日本のPEZA進出企業にとっては、心強いリーダーであったデリマさん。後任とその手腕が気になるところですが、彼女が築いたクリーンな組織体、投資家に耳を傾け実行するリーダーシップは受け継がれる事を期待しています。

    また、6月30日、大統領就任式でドゥテルテ大統領が正式に就任しました。国民からは「変革」を期待され当選しましたが、国民の期待に応える事が出来るのでしょうか?

    現状に合った税システムの導入、外国投資の誘致、インフラの整備などが指針とされていますが、どれだけ「実行」できるのか、非常に期待が高いです。

    20年間見直しがされていない個人所得税率の変更、アセアンの中でも高い30%の法人税、ジャンクフード税を取り入れ国民の健康を促進する、ネガティブリストを見直し外資参入を促す、などフィリピン在住外国人に直接影響する話題も多く、期待が高まる一方、その過激な発言で国際社会からの批判があるのも事実です。

    BIR関連では、早速就任初日に6月発行の通達の効力が停止となり、政権が変わると方針ががらりと変わる、とてもフィリピンらしい動きで驚かれた方も多いかもしれません。

    税務関連の法案等固まりましたらまた、皆様に共有させて頂ければと思います。
