The Daegu Regional Tax Office (Commissioner Min Juwon) held a 'Segeum Ansim Gyosil' (Tax Peace of Mind Class) on the 10th to promote customized tax administration services, including the Taxpayer Rights Protection Request System and the Support Group System for Small Taxpayers, for local small business owners and traditional market merchants.


This event was organized to resolve tax-related difficulties faced by small business owners who are struggling due to the economic downturn, and to inform them about taxpayer rights protection systems they must be aware of.

The lecture that day focused on three main topics: (1) the 'Support Group System for Small Taxpayers,' under which volunteer tax accountants and certified public accountants help small taxpayers who have difficulty appointing tax agents due to financial constraints resolve their tax issues by providing customized services tailored to each stage of their business; (2) the 'Taxpayer Rights Protection Request System,' under which, if a taxpayer’s rights are infringed or are likely to be infringed during a tax audit or in the course of general national tax administration (including planned actions), the taxpayer may request rights protection from the Taxpayer Protection Officer and obtain relief through deliberation by the Taxpayer Protection Committee or corrective measures demanded by the Taxpayer Protection Officer; and (3) the 'Public Tax Agent System,' which provides free representation in tax appeal procedures to small taxpayers who file objections, requests for review, or grievance petitions in connection with pre-assessment review of tax amounts of 50 million won or less.


In addition to the tax class, employees of the Daegu Regional Tax Office also conducted on-the-spot tax consultations by directly collecting merchants’ tax-related difficulties and suggestions at the site, and promoted digital tax administration services by guiding participants, via a QR code produced in-house, on how to conveniently obtain civil petition certificates through 'Sontax'.



Commissioner Min Juwon stated, "We will continue to strengthen on-site communication so that small business owners, who form the backbone of the local economy, do not suffer disruptions to their livelihoods due to tax issues, and we will do our utmost to protect taxpayers’ valuable rights."
