Tax Code Table for South Korea
The following table lists the tax properties needed to generate South Korea tax reports with the International Tax Reports SuiteApp. The tax code names or letters presented in the table are suggested names or default system preferences. You can rename the tax codes if you'd like. Tax reports identify transactions based on tax code properties, not tax code names.
On the New Tax Code or Edit Tax Code page, check the boxes of the properties that apply to the tax code. For more information about tax code properties, see Tax Code Properties.
Tax type should be set to VAT.
To understand how NetSuite uses the tax codes to get the values for the General Value-Added Tax Return form for the Republic of Korea, see What goes into each box - South Korea VAT report.
