Formula
When paying business income subject to withholding, 3% is withheld as income tax and 10% of that (0.3% of the payment) as local income tax. Income tax under KRW 1,000 is not collected. Amounts are rounded down to KRW 10.
What this calculator cannot apply
The 3.3% is a prepayment settled by the global income tax return the following May; depending on expenses, other income and deductions you may get a refund or owe more. Other withholding rates (service charges, medical services) and the distinction from other income (8.8%) are not applied.
