Tax audits are inevitable while a company is conducting business. However, as tax audits have significant impact on business activities, the appropriate response is required to minimize the damage. An appropriate response is necessary for tax audit, but legal accounting management and taxation are much more important to minimize or eliminate the impact of tax audit on the business. To this end, even when there is no tax investigation, regular tax checks on corporate activities are desirable to prevent any tax issues through such diagnosis. Even when there is a tax investigation, it is necessary to respond to such investigation so that the investigation is carried out only within the specified period, without unnecessarily expanding the subject of tax investigation.
