● If foreign platform operators want to declare net platform service fees received (gross payments collected from buyers minus the service fee payment transferred to foreign non-platform service providers) for their income tax return, and if the payment transferred to foreign non-platform service providers is income from sources in the R.O.C., foreign platform operators shall withhold tax payable at the time of payment. They shall also settle all their taxes withheld in the previous month for the national treasury within the first ten days of each month, and make out the Business Income Tax Detailed Withholding Tax Return and report it with the Payment of Taxes Withheld of Profit-Seeking Enterprise(Declaration) to the tax collection authority-in-charge.
