  27. Philippines Supreme Court Upholds Law Granting VAT Refund To Foreign Tourists

    Remember the law granting value-added tax refund (VAT refund) to foreign tourists signed a few years ago? That law was challenged and recently the Supreme Court of the Philippines upheld the constitutionality of Republic Act 12079 (the act creating a VAT refund mechanism for non-resident tourists), according to a news report by GMA News.

    To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the report of GMA News. Some parts in boldface…

    The Supreme Court (SC) has upheld the constitutionality of a law that grants value-added tax (VAT) refunds on select local purchases by non-resident foreign tourists.

    In a 30-page decision, the SC En Banc dismissed a petition challenging the validity of Republic Act 12079, or an act creating a VAT refund mechanism for non-resident tourists, adding Section 112-A to the National Internal Revenue Code.

    Granting VAT refund to foreign tourists was not arbitrarily done. It is a policy decision based on legitimate state interests, i.e. the need to remain competitive as a global tourist destination,” the SC said.

    “In fine, foreign tourists may be granted privileges and benefits that are not extended to Filipino citizens, so as long as these distinctions are based on reasonable and justifiable classifications, as in here,” it added.

    According to the SC, the VAT refund applies to goods brought from duly accredited stores and taken out of the country within 60 days from purchase. The goods must be priced at least P3,000 per transaction.

    Meanwhile, the SC said Section 5 of the law’s implementing rules and regulations limit the refund to retail and tangible goods, including clothing, apparel, electronics, gadgets, jewelry, accessories, souvenirs, food or non-food consumables, and other items intended for personal use.

    The petitioner, however, argued that the law violates the constitutional guarantee of equal protection as it excludes Filipino citizens.

    For its part, the SC said equal protection does not require identical treatment for all persons.

    It said the act also distinguishes foreign tourists from Filipino citizens.

    According to the SC, the VAT refund system follows the basic rule of VAT that goods are taxed where they are consumed. If the goods are consumed in the Philippines, they remain subject to Philippine VAT.

    Meanwhile, the SC added that VAT refund for foreign tourists is a well-established international practice.

    The Philippines is among the last few countries in Asia to adopt such a system. Our Asian neighbors, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, China, and Japan have long implemented this VAT refund mechanism for foreign tourists,” it said.

    Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? Do you agree with the Supreme Court’s decision on the law about VAT refund for foreign tourists? Apart from the VAT refund for foreign tourists, what problems that plagued the Philippine tourism industry should the government solve this year?

    And where are the benefits of these cutthroat ? The scale of would've flabbergasted you if the responsible agencies were independent and not stacked with . At least those were challenged before.

    And yet, are out justifying this with worthless comparisons to other countries, ignoring differences & . Is worth more than your & from , you ?

    Niño and Niña are "son" and "daughter"

    The children of carbon fueled climate change.

    When you hear "El Niño" or "La Niña" think Trump stole a billion dollars from you to bribe a gas company to STOP BUILDING WIND GENERATION.

    So your tax dollars will buy the destruction "El Niño" is bringing.

    That will be expensive too.

    Just a reminder, if you haven't started your taxes, they're due next week.

    Hopefully, you decided to be like X and get them done early.

  31. And today I finished the annual "if you aren't gonna die you gotta pay taxes" ritual. I've taken over from my wife who had been doing it with TurboTax so I keep that going even though it's a bit pricey. I hate filling out forms and scanning PDFs in is a breeze.

    On the minus side, every fourth fucking screen was an upsell attempt for something called MAX.

    Every.

    Fourth.

    Screen.

    Come on guys. They also have a few misleading "click this box" places where a purchase is next to an acknowledgement of "yes I read this required verbiage".

    Come on people. #death #taxes #intuit #badui

  32. So what does this all mean?

    It means that #Marx and #Riccardo, and #HenryGeorge were all correct.

    There is no workable system of #Capitalism that will not become some form of #Manorialism then #LateStageCapitalism and finally #Fasicsm.

    Here I'm defining Capitalism specifically a any system that allows arbitrarily large wealth accumulation.

    I do not think there is any possible purely #political nor purely #economic solution. Rather, every solution proposed must inherently be a #PoliticalEconomy that is resistant to the accumulation of power and a political system that is resistant to the accumulation of power.

    Do I think #Marxist #Socialism is such a system? No! Absolutely not. I think #HenryGeorge was prescient when he called #Marxism a recipe for #Authoritarianism.

    Marx never proposed a political system that was even moderately robust to corruption.

    Likewise, I think preventing returns to capital is bad. We _want_ individual people to invest their surplus into making bursts of short term profit. That is the actual value add capitalism brings.

    Assuming you had a political system resistant to corruption, then #Taxes are a possible solution. One could, for example, place a small tax on wealth, creating gravitational pressure of the returns to capital. Set to the right level, this should be able to resist massive wealth accumulation.

    I'll have to save my thoughts on political systems to later.

    4/4

  34. While #RAAC revelations raised the profile of #infrastructure problems & lack of maintenance across the #publicsector, especially in #health & #education, if you're expecting #JeremyHunt to fund a massive programme of remedial works, then you're likely to be disappointed.

    Rather than dealing with our crumbling buildings, he'll be setting out how to increase #taxes on most of us (by allowing 'fiscal drag' - not using allowances - to continue) while helping the rich by cutting #InheritanceTax!
