Korean Permanent Establishment Assessment for Foreign Companies

Korean Permanent Establishment Assessment Made Simple

For foreign companies conducting business in South Korea, understanding permanent establishment (PE) risk is critical to staying compliant with Korean tax law and avoiding unexpected liabilities. This Korean Permanent Establishment Assessment Form helps international businesses systematically evaluate their activities against Korean regulatory thresholds and determine whether they've triggered PE status under the Korea-Foreign tax treaties and domestic tax code.

Built for international tax teams and compliance professionals

Whether you're a multinational corporation expanding into the Korean market, a tax advisory firm supporting cross-border clients, or an in-house legal team managing regional compliance, this template streamlines the complex PE assessment process. The form captures key activity indicators—from physical presence and employee deployment to contract authority and revenue thresholds—and applies conditional logic to surface risk areas that require deeper analysis or professional consultation.

Automate your compliance workflow

Once a company completes this assessment, you can use Stepper to route submissions based on PE risk level: automatically notify your tax advisor for high-risk cases, create follow-up tasks in your project management tool, or generate compliance checklists for internal review. Integration with your CRM or case management system means every PE assessment is tracked, timestamped, and ready for audit documentation.

For international tax professionals, legal advisors, and compliance teams operating across borders, this template provides a clear, efficient starting point for Korean PE assessments that can be customized to reflect your firm's specific advisory framework or client needs.
