Research Abstract |
Prof. Kimura propose the Automated Clearinghouse Tax (ACT) in framework of clearing retail payment system. The income spent in electronic commerce transactions should be to subject ACT, which would link up with the existing consumption tax. ACT is characterized as the consumption-type income tax, and hence ACT should trigger the income spent by B2C electronic transaction instead of B2B e-commerce. Moreover, qualified automated clearing houses (ACHs) may access to the relevant information about the billing address, the real name, domain name, bank account, consumption-location and residence of end-consumers, the amount of income spent in electronic commerce transactions, name and location remote sellers as well, if the legislative would allow to disclosure the relevant information, considering the unexpected development of technology..

ACT model would be able to stop the tax erosion from e-commerce. My ACT model is distinguished from the online clearinghouse tax proposed by Prof. Cockfield (Canada). He will establish the independent institutions for collecting tax, which are not necessary from my stand... However, we employ the electronic clearinghouse and retail clearing payment system, and the computer software for taxation... He is a dominant member of our research group. His contribution is appreciated very well. Prof. McNulty (USA) reported "Traditional United States international income taxation and the stress points created by emerging electronic commerce." Moreover, Prof. Hey (Germany) explained :"the application of the OECD Model Treaty to E-commerce transactions" from German view, Furthermore, Dr. Pinkernell (Germany) reported "application of the E.U. Value Added Tax to e-commerce transactions" from German perspective. Last, but not at least, it is proud to list up Articles written by all of our members in English. Less
